Shpy - Who's The Spy?
Find the spy. Trust no one.
Only for iPhone
Free
iPhone
Pass the phone, find the Shpy. NEW:
six card decks, two you unlock by playing,
and one you make yourself from your own photos after 50 rounds.
Shpy is a party word game for one phone and a room full of people. Everyone sees the same secret word — everyone except the Shpy.
Pass the phone around. Each player looks at their card in private: most of you see the word, one of you sees nothing but the word SHPY. Then the timer starts and you talk. Say something about the word, but not too much, or the Shpy will work out what it is. Ask questions. Watch who hesitates.
When time runs out the table decides. Citizens win by naming the Shpy. The Shpy wins by guessing the word — or by never being caught at all.
HOW IT PLAYS
• 3 to 12 players, one phone, nothing to set up
• Rounds from a few seconds to fifteen minutes — you choose
• More than one Shpy if you want them, with an optional Shpy list so accomplices know each other
• No cards to print, no rules to read aloud: the phone deals and keeps time
THE WORDS
• Six word packs: All, Cities, Nature, Objects, Funny, Food
• Combine them — play Cities and Food together, or any mix you like
• Hundreds of words in every pack, written for the way people actually talk
• Add your own words, and they turn up in every pack you play
THE DECKS
• Six card decks to swipe through, from oil painting to halftone comic
• Two more you earn rather than buy: seven days in a row unlocks the Lone Wolf deck
• After fifty rounds the game hands you the camera, and you can build a deck of your own from two photographs
• One more deck is hidden further in. You'll know it when you find it.
LANGUAGES
• English
• Georgian
Every word, rule and button is written properly in both, and you can switch between them at any time from the home screen.
MADE FOR A TABLE, NOT A SCREEN
No account. No sign-up. No internet needed once it's installed. Nothing to buy — Shpy is free, supported by a single ad between rounds. Sound, vibration, animation and daily reminders can each be switched off in Settings.
Best played with friends who are bad at lying, and worse at hiding it.
Ratings & Reviews
Make a deck of your own. Play fifty rounds and Shpy hands you the camera: photograph a background and a card back, and the whole game wears them.
NEW
• A theme picker you swipe through — one deck per page, shown large, with its own background behind it
• Build your own deck from two photos, unlocked after 50 rounds
• One more deck hidden further in, for the persistent
• Word packs combine now: play Cities and Food together, or any mix you like
• Your own words play in every pack, not just All
• Your chosen packs are remembered between sessions
NICER TO LOOK AT
• The daily streak now slides in from the top like a notification instead of interrupting with a popup
• The app opens straight from the launch screen into the menu, with the logo staying exactly where it is
• The timer's colour walks from calm through amber into red, with a bead of light riding the ring and a slow breath in the final ten seconds
• Numbers roll like an odometer instead of blinking
• Screens drift in from the direction you're travelling
• Buttons, fields and toggles have proper rounded corners
• A hint of film grain, so the artwork no longer bands on OLED screens
FIXED
• The timer stays red through the last second instead of flashing back to purple
• Cards scale down on smaller phones instead of being clipped at the edges
• Names can be dragged into order again
• The reveal screen shows the word in capitals
• Various glow and shadow artefacts on the card screen
And if you'd rather the app kept still, REDUCE MOTION in Settings turns the movement off.
