Everyone gets a secret word and target. Coax yours into saying your word before your hunter gets you. Play through brunch, meetings, or road trips. No board. No turns.
Everyone gets a secret word. Everyone gets a secret target. Coax your target into saying your word, out loud or over text, before your hunter does the same to you.
Coax is Word Assassins for mobile, a party game that hides inside real life. No board. No turns. No huddling around a screen. Play through brunch, a road trip, an office week, or a wedding weekend. A hunt can last an hour or several days.
