NORMAL

The rules of the game are simple: the original poster thinks of one or more things, and the commenters will try to guess them by asking questions to narrow down possibilities. When someone correctly guesses an item, edit it into your post and say who guessed it.

This sub is inspired by the character guessing threads they used to have on /r/WhoWouldWin, but that doesn't mean you're limited to using fictional characters. You can have people guess anything from your favorite animal to the contents of your purse.

Subreddit Rules

  1. No NSFW posts.
  2. No downvoting.
  3. No being rude or insulting.

Also, check out the Guidelines.

I created the famous "Who Am I" party game ! Try to guess your hidden character. Who are you ? - Play from 2 to 8 players directly in web browser for free. https://postitguess.io

To add more context

I'm French indie dev, and I developed this because with my friends we play the hidden word in the forehead a lot IRL and we didn't found an online version.

Game is currently trending in France thanks to famous twitch streamers and every days there are thousands of players, so I decided to launch it internationally.

How to play :

📞 Invite your friends to a voice call (Discord/Zoom/Skype)

🦹 Choose a character for someone to guess that everyone knows

❓ Ask questions to find your character

💬 Other players can only answer you with "yes" or "no"

🎯 Try to guess your character as soon as you have an idea

There is also the possibility to create themed games and multiple game modes are available.

Don't hesitate to come back to me if you have any questions or want more details!
