HOW TO PLAY

Imposter Game is a social deduction game. Some players have a word, others are imposters. Can you find the imposters, or will they blend in and figure out the word?

How it works: Players receive a word from the selected theme. Imposters don't have a word but know who their teammates are. Through discussion and clues, players try to identify imposters, while imposters try to blend in and figure out the word.
