WORKS WITH NO INTERNET
In a theme park line, on a flight, on the bus or out in the country with no signal: DizAi plays just the same. 14 themes and over 500 words, all already on your phone.
DizAi is a Brazilian charades game played entirely in Brazilian Portuguese: the decks, the words and the interface. There is no English version, and that is exactly the point.
WHO IT IS FOR
Brazilians living abroad who miss speaking Portuguese, families split between two countries, couples where only one side grew up in Brazil, and anyone studying the language who wants to hear how people really talk.
HOW TO PLAY
Put the phone on your forehead without seeing the screen. Everyone else shouts clues, acts, sings and mimes. Point the phone down when the word is right and up to pass. Nobody reads instructions: ten seconds in, the whole room is playing.
DECKS MADE OF BRAZILIAN CULTURE
Soap operas, funk and sertanejo hits, Brazilian football, memes, slang, movies, cartoons, places in Brazil, celebrities, brands, songs and movies. Pure nostalgia if you grew up with all that, and the fastest crash course in Brazilian culture if you did not.
PLAY ACROSS THE OCEAN
Prop the phone up during a video call and play with the family back home. The front camera records the round, so the faces, the last second panic and the cousin who could not explain anything end up in a video for the family group chat.
BUILD YOUR OWN DECK
Write your own words, in Portuguese or in any language you like: inside jokes, nicknames, the friend who is always late.
GREAT FOR
- Brazilians abroad who miss speaking Portuguese
- Family video calls between two countries
- Showing Brazilian culture to foreign friends
- Portuguese classes and language exchange groups
- Parties, cookouts and long dinners
No board, no setup, no rulebook. Two players or twenty. Just bring someone who speaks Portuguese.
