A brilliant adaptation of the board game, updated to be asynchronous and with tons of variant modes and a progression system. You even unlock the variant modes as options to use in the for-fun games you can invite friends to =) On the day that I downloaded they were having some type of server issue that made the game regularly time out (and then flat-out fail to even log in, as the problem progressed), but it's been smooth sailing in the week since then!

great interface and expansion upon the original board game. trying to get my gamer friends to join so we can play together without having to be physically together. no in game cash grabs. good variety of game options. interesting progression allows one to play new variants as you gain "experience" vs being overwhelmed with them all at once. really love the spymaster challenges where you can see the clues that other people give and how people responded. it's helped up my game.

Really fun! Just like the board game, but with extra modes and you can pick it up to play as little or as much as you like. 2 issues keep me from giving it a perfect 5: 1) I don't like typing in landscape mode. It would be nice to have a vertical option. 2) If I keep the game running—even in the background—it gets extremely laggy and needs to be restarted. (Pixel 8a) Thanks!
