What is Imposter?
Imposter (also called Who's the Spy or the impostor word game) went viral because it needs almost nothing: one phone is passed around, everyone secretly sees the same word except one player, and the group gives one-word hints until someone gets voted out as the impostor.
Tadado's Imposter mode works the same way: pass one phone, everyone holds to see the secret word, and the imposter's card is blank. Each player says one clue word, the group votes, and a caught imposter can still win by guessing the word. It plays with 3 to 12 people and uses Tadado's decks, including the free Halloween deck.
