Gather your friends and family for a hilarious game of social deduction, bluffing, and deception! Everyone receives a secret prompt, except the impostor, who gets a fake secret prompt or no prompt at all. Discuss, bluff, and vote. Can you figure out who the impostor is before they blend in? Treat Impostor Madness!, just like any other board game! Put the outside world on pause and enjoy the moment with your friends and family! How To Play: 1. Enter your name and personalize your avatar with a photo or an emoji 2. Create a Local or Online Lobby (or a Single Device game) with your preferred configuration, and a Lobby Code will be automatically generated 3. Share that Lobby Code with your friends, so they can join your lobby Note: Single Device games have no Lobby Code, since everyone plays on one device. 4. Each round, players receive the same secret prompt, except the impostor 5. Discuss the prompt without saying it directly 6. Vote for who you think the impostor is 7. Score points for correct votes, successful bluffs, and bonus guesses! Game Modes: • Classic (Blind Impostor) Instead of the secret prompt, impostors see: YOU ARE THE IMPOSTOR!
