Mimesis: Charades Party Game
Mime, guess & act with friends
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: 5 easy themes (Animals, Jobs, Sports, Everyday Actions, Food & Drinks) and the real idioms of your language. Free, no ads, no account.
Mimesis is the charades party game for game night with friends, family, or just the two of you. One phone, zero words: act out the card, your team shouts the answer, and the clock keeps ticking.
NEW: 2-PLAYER MODE
Just the two of you? Take turns miming for each other. Every card found scores for both: the mime gets 2 points, the guesser 1. First to the target wins. Perfect for couples, siblings or a quick game on the couch.
HOW IT WORKS
Split into teams (or pick 2 players). On your turn, hold the phone so nobody else can see it, read the card and act it out without speaking. Your team guesses as many cards as possible before the timer runs out. First to the target score wins.
4 THEMES, 500+ CARDS
• Expressions: real idioms like "Spill the beans" or "It's raining cats and dogs", acted out literally
• Improbable: wacky scenes like "An ogre playing poker" or "A vampire getting a sunburn"
• Art & pop culture: movies, songs, books and famous paintings
• Rebus: words split into sounds you can act out, like "carpet (car / pet)"
Each theme has a harder Plus version for seasoned players.
MADE FOR PARTIES
• 2 players, or as many teams as you like
• Add teams and players in seconds, or use the random name ideas
• Round length from 30 to 90 seconds, and choose the winning score
• A pass-the-phone screen says whose turn it is, so nobody peeks
• Stuck on a card? Skip it, no penalty
• Haptics and confetti every time your team gets it right
PLAYS IN YOUR LANGUAGE
Mimesis follows your phone's language automatically: cards, idioms and even rebus puns are adapted to it.
NO STRINGS ATTACHED
• Free, no ads
• No account, no sign-up
• Works offline after the first launch
• Open source
Great for birthday parties, holidays, family gatherings, sleepovers, team building or a rainy night in. Easy enough for kids, silly enough to make adults cry laughing.
The rules fit in one sentence: no talking, no singing, no writing, no pointing at things. The rest is up to your acting skills.
Grab a phone, gather your friends, and let the show begin!
