How to Play Imposter Game
Open the Game
Go to Impostergame.ai in your browser on any device.
Set Up Your Group
Add 3–99 players by entering names, using default labels, or tapping the lightning bolt for instant batches of 5. You can easily remove players too. Imposter Game recommends settings for you, with full manual control always available.
Generate Words
Use AI Generate Words to get instant random sets or request specific themes with custom prompts. AI supports both paired (e.g., Lion vs. Tiger) and unpaired modes. Alternatively, use Import Words to upload your own list via text or file.
Reveal Roles
After the game starts, pass the device to each player. One by one, players secretly look at the screen to see their role (civilian or imposter) and their secret word.
Clue Rounds
Players take turns giving a one-word clue to describe their secret word (e.g., 'Stripes' for Tiger), without saying the word itself. Civilians try to help friends guess, while imposters bluff to fit in.
Voting
After a few rounds of clues, everyone discusses and votes on who they think the imposter is. The person with the most votes is revealed. If you caught the imposter, the civilians win; if not, the imposter scores.
Next Round
Optionally, adjust settings or press restart to play again. Try more rounds so everyone gets a chance to be the imposter!
