## Every game has its own rhythm.

### Secretly, in turns

In Imposter, Mafia or Spy, your role stays private. Hold the screen so only the current player can see their information.

### Together, out loud

Questions, quizzes and challenges are all about the conversation. Read things aloud and give everyone room to join in.
