Show HN: Insinuate – tense description party game

2 points by wolfred 10 hours ago

My friends and I love playing description games, but got tired of the same old cards - so I made a simple web app with a fresh set of prompts, and a different timer mechanic:

Rather than teams taking turns, everyone sits together, and you describe only one prompt at a time. As soon as you're done you pass the phone to the player on your left, who gets a new set of prompts to choose from, and so on. After an exponential (memoryless) random amount of time, the round ends (loudly!), and whoever was holding the phone at the time loses a life for their team. It's like Hot Potato.

The prompts are AI-generated - I like most of them, but there are some weird ones in there...

Warning: the explosion is LOUD.
