Frequently Asked Questions

Everything people usually ask before their first game night.

Do all players need a phone?

No. Most games only need one shared phone, passed hand to hand around the group. A few features — like Crew's Online Room mode, where it's available — can use multiple phones, but nothing about the core games requires it.

Can it work offline?

Yes. Load the page once while you have signal, and everything after that — role assignment, timers, sounds, voting — runs locally in your browser with no internet connection needed.

How many players do I need?

It depends on the game. Most work with a minimum of 3 or 4 players and scale up to 10 or more. Each game's setup screen shows its recommended range, and several (like Mafia and Two Rooms and a Boom) let you tune the exact ratios yourself.

Is it free?

Yes, completely free. No account, no purchase, no subscription, no in-game payments.

Can children play?

The built-in games are simple party games in the same spirit as Werewolf or Mafia, without objectionable content by default. A few games (Secret Missions, custom Chameleon categories, custom Mafia roles) let whoever sets up the game write their own content — a supervising adult should review anything custom before kids play.

Which games need two rooms?

Only Two Rooms and a Boom requires two separate physical spaces, since its whole mechanic is built around trading players between rooms. Every other game in the collection works fine in a single room.

Can I play without internet?

Yes, once the page has loaded. No part of gameplay requires an ongoing connection — the app runs entirely in your browser after that first load.

Do I need to create an account?

No. There's no sign-up, no login, and nothing tied to your identity. Close the tab and the session is gone — reopen it and start fresh.

Is my data stored anywhere?

For the core games, no. Player names, roles, and game state exist only in your browser's memory while the tab is open, and disappear when you close it. See the Privacy Policy for the full picture, including how this may change if analytics or ads are enabled later.

Does this work on any phone?

Any modern phone, tablet, or computer with a web browser should work. No app store download, no OS restriction.
