I'm the dev: we just released a new couch game, Who Said That? One of you writes the truth, everyone else bluffs in their style. 3-8 people, one TV, phones are the controllers
Hi again, I'm the dev of Buzzin, the couch games platform I posted here before. We just released a new game and I wanted to show it to this sub first.
New game: Who Said That?
It is a bluffing game about the people sitting in the room with you. Every round starts with a vote on your phones, for example "Who of us most often pretends to be working?". The person who gets picked writes the true answer about themselves. Everyone else writes a fake one that sounds just like them. All the answers land on the TV and you pick the one you think is real. You score for spotting the truth, and for every friend who falls for your lie. Up to five rounds, then titles for the best liars and one winner. It is for 3 to 8 players and it is the most fun with people who know each other well, or think they do.
The video is the trailer: the TV screen and a player's phone next to it.
The two other games on the platform:
- TV Show: a trivia game show for 2 to 8 players, the question is on the TV, you answer on your phone, and power-ups let you mess with whoever is winning.
- Werewolves: the classic for 5 to 16 players where the TV is the narrator, so nobody has to sit out and moderate.
How it runs: open playbuzzin.com on the TV (smart TV browser or a laptop on HDMI) and everyone joins from their phone with the room code.
We launched a bit over two months ago and it is going really well. A Halloween event is coming soon too.
I would love to hear what you think, good and bad. I like criticism, and I will happily take a few words of encouragement as well :)
