The party game for family gatherings. Phone on your forehead, friends act it out, 60 seconds to guess. 780 words from Sholay to samosa. Free, no ads.
Hold the phone to your forehead. Your friends act it out. Tilt forward when you get it, tilt back to skip.
Charades by Lawnsky is the party game for Indian living rooms — 300 words across five categories, weighted toward Bollywood, cricket and the films everyone in the room already knows.
HOW TO PLAY
Pick a category, choose your round length, and hold the phone to your forehead. Friends describe or act out the word on screen without saying it. Tilt the phone forward to mark it correct, tilt it back to skip, and get through as many as you can before the clock runs out.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• Movies — Sholay to Jawan, plus the international classics
• Animals, Sports, Food & Drink and Actions
• 60 words in every category, shuffled every round, so no two games are the same
• Make your own — add your friends' names, inside jokes, anything you like
BUILT FOR ACTUAL PARTIES
• Tilt to answer, so nobody has to reach for a button mid-round
• Pick 5 to 20 words and 30 to 120 seconds per round
• A recap at the end showing exactly what you got and what you missed
• Screen stays awake while you play
• No account, no sign-up, no ads
YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
Your custom word lists never leave your device. No account, no tracking, nothing collected.
Eight new categories
Bollywood Hits, TV & Serials, Festivals, Famous Indians, Hollywood,
Professions, Household and Places in India join the original five.
More than twice what the app launched with.
Feel every answer
The phone taps you when a word is guessed or passed, so you know it
registered without taking it off your forehead. There's a tap for the
closing seconds too, and for picking up and rearranging categories.
Sound now plays even with the phone on silent.
Settings
A new panel to turn sound and haptics on or off, remembered between
sessions.
Rearranging, properly
Press and hold a category and it lifts. Drag it and the list flows
around it, and now scrolls when you reach the edge — so you can move a
category anywhere, not just where the screen happens to be. Pinning
works while searching too.
Easier word lists
Adding your own words now uses chips instead of one long line. Type a
word and press comma or Enter. Tap a chip to fix a typo, or × to drop
it. Pasting a comma-separated list still works — it splits into chips
automatically. Closing the screen by accident no longer loses what you
typed, and "Your own words" is always in reach at the top.
