Imposter

About

A fast party word game where everyone knows the secret except the imposter.

Pass the phone, reveal your role, and start the round. Most players see the same secret word — one player has to fake it. Give clues that help your group but stay subtle. Listen closely, spot weak answers, and vote before the imposter escapes suspicion.

Features

• Quick rounds for parties, hangouts, and family nights
• Pass-and-play setup — no second device needed
• Groups of 3 to 8 (Premium unlocks larger groups)
• Secret roles, clue giving, bluffing, voting
• Multiple categories and modes

How it was built?

A pass-and-play party game built entirely in SwiftUI, targeting iOS 17.6+ to lean on the latest navigation and animation APIs. The whole experience runs on a single device cycling through 3–8 players — no networking, no accounts, no friction.

The trickiest UX problem was the secret-reveal moment: each player has to see their role privately, then hand the phone over. I built a press-and-hold reveal panel with a blur overlay that auto-locks the moment a finger lifts, so a glance from another player can't leak the role. State for roles, categories, and voting all lives in observable view models.

All designs were made by me in Figma with help from AI tools.
