Game Rules

1️⃣ Role Distribution

Each player draws a slip in secret.Whoever gets the "IMPOSTOR FRIEND" paper must hide their identity.Others are regular players trying to find the impostor.

2️⃣ Start & Question Rounds

Decide the first player by rolling a die (highest starts) or spinning a bottle.The first player asks a question to any other player.The next player (clockwise) does the same — and so on.The impostor must dodge or slightly alter their answers to avoid being revealed.

Example:❓ “What color is your car?”

✅ Regular player: “Black.”

✅ Impostor: “A dark shade.”

3️⃣ First Round (No Accusations)

During the first complete round, all players must ask a question — no accusations allowed yet.Everyone listens carefully for inconsistencies.

4️⃣ Accusation Phase Begins

From the second round (when the first player plays again), accusations become possible — but not mandatory.A player can accuse someone during their turn (after asking a question).If the accused is not the impostor, the accuser is eliminated.If the accusation is correct, the group wins!

5️⃣ Mandatory Accusations (Final Voting)

From the 5th round, accusations are mandatory after each question.The accused must reveal their paper:

✅ If it's the impostor → Game over, players win!

❌ If not → The accuser is eliminated, and the game continues.
