About

Alias

Features
Read full description

Alias is a party game of hidden loyalties, played in person. It needs a real room, real people, and nerve. Most of the table are loyal Agents. A few are Double Agents, hiding in plain sight. Nobody knows who is who. That is the game. HOW A NIGHT UNFOLDS • Everyone writes real-world dares into the deck: take a photo with a stranger, get someone's number, start a toast. The game deals them out. • By day, complete your dares. Another player must be standing near you to witness each one. Your phone senses who is actually close. • Double Agents fake their dares. When they get close to someone, they can strike them out of the game. Quietly. • Find someone who's out? Report it and the table gathers: talk it out, then vote by secret ballot. • At night, everyone votes someone out, while the Seer secretly reads one player's true allegiance and the Protector shields someone from harm. • Agents win by finishing every dare or unmasking the Doubles. Doubles win by thinning the table. The Jester wins alone. By getting voted out. BUILT FOR REAL ROOMS • 3 to 50 players. One phone hosts; friends join in seconds with a QR code or a four-letter table code, on the same Wi-Fi or none at all. • Your phone senses which players are physically near you. Witnessing a dare or striking a player only works up close, so the room stays in motion. • Dare packs from clean party fun to spicier evenings. The host chooses what kind of night it is. • A shared photo reel: capture moments during the game and everyone at the table can save the whole night's pictures at the end. • If a phone dies or an app is closed, the seat waits. Rejoin and pick up exactly where you were. If the host's phone disappears, another phone takes over automatically. NOTHING TO SIGN UP FOR No accounts. No ads. No tracking. When the game ends, it disappears. The only thing you keep are the photos you choose to save. Gather the table. Deal the roles. Trust no one.
