Contra!oir

Read full description

Contra!oir è il gioco della voce al contrario, per due persone e una serata che finisce in risate. Uno registra una frase normale e segreta. L'altro la sente solo al rovescio, prova a imitare quei suoni assurdi e poi ribalta la propria imitazione: se il senso torna fuori e indovina la frase, prende un punto. Poi i ruoli si scambiano. COME SI GIOCA 1. Dì la frase: registrala in segreto, l'altro non deve sentirla. 2. Ascolta al contrario: suona come una lingua inventata. 3. Prova a rifarla: imita i suoni rovesciati, anche se sembrano senza senso. 4. Ribalta e indovina: la tua imitazione torna dritta. Che frase era? Solo dopo la risposta si sentono di fila la frase originale e l'imitazione ribaltata, e chi ha detto la frase conferma il punto. Niente voti, niente giudizi automatici: decidete voi. Partite da 5, 8 o 10 turni a testa: alla fine vince chi ha indovinato di più. In parità scegliete voi, spareggio o pareggio. E la partita si può chiudere quando volete. DUE MODI DI GIOCARE • Sullo stesso telefono: vi passate l'iPhone, senza account e senza connessione. • A distanza, dal vivo: una stanza privata con un codice d'invito, ognuno col suo telefono. Chi indovina riceve solo la frase già rovesciata; l'originale arriva solo dopo la risposta, che si dà a voce. E POI • La ruota degli argomenti: calcio, sport, cibi e bevande, film e serie TV, musica, spettacolo, scienza e tecnologia, geografia, lavoro. Oppure frase libera. • Il tuo mazzo: registra in anticipo le frasi migliori e sceglile in segreto durante la partita. • Condividi l'imitazione: mandala con Messaggi, Mail o le app di chat, o salvala come file. • I due mostri, verde e arancio, che esultano, ascoltano e ti prendono in giro. • Il tabellone con le partite vere, salvato anche online se accedi con Apple. PRIVACY Sullo stesso telefono le registrazioni non escono mai dall'iPhone. A distanza l'audio del turno passa dal nostro server solo per arrivare all'altro telefono e si cancella alla fine del turno. Accedi con Apple chiede solo il nome, mai l'email, e puoi eliminare l'account dall'app quando vuoi.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Contra!oir at none against Ruzzle's 10. Contra!oir also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 6 weeks). Ruzzle's advantage is chart position (#63 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
