Impostor Kenya: The Undercover Party Game (Also Spelled Imposter)

Impostor — spelled Imposter by plenty of people — is the undercover party game that's everywhere on Kenyan game nights. Most of the room shares a secret word, a hidden few are faking it, and everyone has to sniff out who. It's social deduction in the family of Spyfall, Undercover and Mr White, built for 3 to 10 players on one phone.

The roles

• Civilians — the majority, all sharing the same secret word.
• Undercover — gets a similar-but-different word and doesn't know they're the fake.
• Mr White — gets no word at all and has to bluff.

How to play

Pass the phone so everyone secretly sees their card. Take turns dropping a clue that proves you know your word — without saying it. Then the room debates and votes one person out each round. Civilians win by catching every fake; undercovers win by surviving; Mr White can steal the game by guessing the secret word.

Why it's blowing up in Kenya

• The Kenyan word packs make every clue land.
• One phone, no download for each player.
