Everything you need for a great game night.

Voice Input

Voice Input

Just speak your answer. On-device Apple speech recognition (SFSpeechRecognizer) validates each word locally — no network round-trip, no transcript leaves the device. Type instead if you prefer.

11 Categories

11 Categories

Countries, World Capitals, Periodic Elements, Animals, Dog Breeds, Sports, Car Brands, Musical Instruments, Mythical Creatures, Cartoon Characters, and an unlockable School category. Pick one or stack several — the word pool merges and deduplicates automatically.

Local Multiplayer

Local Multiplayer

Pass-and-play with 2–8 players on a single iPhone or iPad. One game runs roughly 6–12 minutes depending on category mix and timer setting — no extra devices, no accounts.

How to Play

Up and running in seconds.

  1. 01

    Choose one or more categories

    Pick from Countries, World Capitals, Periodic Elements, Animals, Dog Breeds, Sports, Car Brands, Musical Instruments, Mythical Creatures, Cartoon Characters, or School. Stack several at once — the word pool merges automatically.

  2. 02

    Add players

    Enter names for 2 to 8 players on one device. Or add AI opponents at Easy, Hard, or Nightmare difficulty if you want a solo challenge. For remote play, open a Game Center party and share the code.

  3. 03

    A word appears — last letter highlighted

    The starting word is shown on screen with its last letter clearly highlighted so everyone knows what comes next.

  4. 04

    Say your answer (or type it)

    Speak a word starting with that highlighted letter. Tap the mic and talk — speech recognition does the rest. Typing is always an option too.

  5. 05

    Beat the timer

    Answer before time runs out. Timer difficulty ranges from a relaxed 30 seconds (Easy) down to a brutal 10 seconds (Insane).

  6. 06

    Don't repeat words

    Every word used is tracked. Repeating one gets you eliminated — so keep thinking of new ones as the round goes on.

  7. 07

    Last player standing wins

    Run out of time or repeat a word? You're out. The last player still in the round takes the round win. Play best-of sessions for a full match.
