Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Play the viral imposter word game with friends. Describe the secret word, spot the imposter, and survive the vote.
New: Survival Mode
Play multiple rounds, eliminate suspicious players and find the imposter before they guess the secret word.
ShadeWord is a fast and fun online party game about words, clues, bluffing, and suspicion.
One player is the imposter. Everyone else receives the same secret word. Players take turns describing the word without making it too obvious. The imposter has to blend in, guess the topic, and avoid being exposed.
After the clue round, everyone votes for the player they think is the imposter. Can your group find the suspicious player, or will the imposter survive?

New: Survival Mode!
Play ShadeWord across multiple rounds with eliminations. If a player is voted out incorrectly, they become a spectator and the game continues. The imposter wins by deceiving the other players or by correctly guessing the secret word.
We also improved stability, lobby logic and voting.
