SPYBOX is the local party game app (one phone is all you need) that will test your nerves, bluffing skills, and friendships.

Avoid the explosion! - THE HUNT: Infiltrate the group and eliminate your targets from the shadows without being unmasked by the other agents. - DETONATOR: Communicate fast and well to cut the right wires and defuse the bomb before the countdown ends! - COVER: A spy is hidden in a secret location.

Ajoutez vos potes une fois, lancez une partie en 10 secondes. SEPT JEUX, SEPT AMBIANCES - PYRAMIDE - Un jeu de mémoire et de bluff. Retenez vos cartes, puis faites croire aux autres que vous avez celle qui vient d'être retournée. Personne ne peut vérifier... sauf en vous mettant au défi. En solo ou en équipes, jusqu'à 12 joueurs. Et une manche finale révèle qui se souvenait vraiment de sa main. - IMPOSTEUR - Un jeu de déduction sociale. Tout le monde reçoit presque le même mot, sauf l'imposteur.

Plus de 580 paires de mots, écrites et testées une par une. - MAYA CACHÉ - Le jeu de dés où tout se joue au culot. Lancez les dés, vous seul les voyez. Annoncez votre combinaison, ou inventez-la. Votre voisin décide : il vous croit et relance, ou il vous traite de menteur. - CHEVAL DE 3 - Deux dés, trois règles, et un rôle que personne ne veut. Rien à régler : on lance, on passe le téléphone à gauche, et ça tourne. - PUISSANCE 4 - Le classique, à deux sur le même écran. - MORPION - Trois sur une ligne. Aussi simple que dans la cour de récré, aussi disputé. - DÉS - Juste des dés à lancer, de un à cinq, pour tous les jeux qui en réclament.
