Liar’s Table
Read full descriptionHide full description
Liar's Table is a 3D bluffing card game. Five cards each, one revolver with a single bullet. You play face down, and what you claim isn't always true. Get caught, and it's your turn to pull the trigger. LEARN IT IN THIRTY SECONDS • A 20-card deck: six each of K, Q and A, plus two jokers that count as anything. Each round picks a random table card. • On your turn, play 1–3 cards face down and claim they're all the table card. • The next player can keep playing, or shout "Liar!" and turn over the cards you just played. • If any card isn't the table card, whoever played them shoots. If they're all true, whoever called shoots. • Six chambers, one bullet, and the cylinder never spins again: every shot you survive makes the next one worse. Last one standing wins. PRACTICE SOLO No account needed. Old Mo, Snowy and Gramps Croak take the other seats: a cautious bear, a bluffing rabbit and a suspicious frog. Each plays its own way, and they only see what's on the table and their own hand. PLAY ONLINE • Open a table for 2–4 players, with an optional password and spectators. The AI fills empty seats. • Push to talk: there's no text chat at the table. Hold the button and the table hears you. • If you time out, the AI plays for you; come back within 60 seconds and pick up where you left off. • After a match, rate the players at your table and add them as friends. Friends can message each other privately. • The server runs every call and sends your hand to you alone. The bullet and the deal can be checked after each match, so you know it was fair. • Sit down with players on the web version too. ALSO • Available in English, 日本語 and 中文. • Report or block other players, and delete your account in the game.
