Questions
How many players do I need?
Three or more. A few friends can play with one spy, and a big group can add more spies, up to one third of the players.
Do I need internet or an account?
Not for passing one phone around or for nearby play. SharePlay runs over FaceTime, so that one needs a connection.
What if the spy doesn’t know the word?
That is the idea. In Classic mode the spy knows their role but not the word. Two Words gives the spy a decoy, and Blind Spy hides the role itself.
Can we play with pictures?
Yes. In picture mode civilians see the same picture and the spy sees only the theme.
What does Fib Pro add?
More themed word packs, extra picture packs and unlimited custom sets. All three modes and every player count work without it.
Can I use my own words?
Yes. You can build your own word sets in the app, with one custom set included and unlimited sets in Fib Pro.
