Fan-made setup tool — not affiliated with Among Us, Spyfall, or other commercial party games. Browse Gaming Tools.
Max 4 (keeps at least 2 crew).
Host script & player cards
Set players, imposters, and category — then generate a round.
Keep the host section private until after the round. Regenerate for a new word and new random imposter seats.
Crew-vs-imposter word games need a secret answer and hidden roles before anyone asks the first question. An imposter game generator automates that setup so hosts spend less time writing cards and more time playing.
This tool runs entirely in your browser. One click produces a private host section and numbered player lines you can copy into DMs, print as slips, or read one player at a time around the table.
Three steps from headcount to a ready-to-read script.
Enter how many people are playing (3–20) and how many imposters you want — the tool keeps at least two crew.
Pick animals, food, places, objects, or mixed lists — or type your own secret word to override the category.
Generate once, keep the host block private, then share each player line or slip without revealing others.
Five parts in every copy-ready script — host-only first, then player cards.
The answer only the host sees until the round ends — crew players get this on their cards.
Which player numbers are imposters (for example, 2 and 5) so the host can spot-check without reading every card aloud.
Each crew line includes the secret word and reminds players not to say it out loud.
Imposters learn they are imposters but not the word — they bluff through questions and votes.
A closing reminder about crew vs imposter win conditions you can adapt with house rules.
Support three to twenty players per round. The imposter count auto-caps at players minus two so at least two crew members always remain — essential for discussion and voting.
Examples: with six players you can run one to four imposters; with ten players, one to eight. Regenerate between rounds for a new word and a fresh seat shuffle every time.
Each category pulls from a hand-picked list of concrete, guessable nouns — 20 words per pool, 80 total in mixed mode.
20 familiar creatures and quirky picks — penguin, narwhal, mantis — for silly or scientific clues.
20 dishes and ingredients — waffle, kimchi, tiramisu — that invite texture, smell, and occasion hints.
20 cities and regions — Kyoto, Marrakech, Sedona — for travel, weather, and landmark questions.
20 everyday and oddball items — telescope, harmonica, hourglass — for creative “heist movie prop” prompts.
All 80 words combined for maximum variety when you want unpredictable terms back-to-back.
Override randomness with your own term — themed parties, ESL vocabulary, or inside jokes.
Same DNA as many popular word-and-bluff party games — this page only automates setup, not the laughter.
Crew members know the same secret word. Imposters only know they are imposters — they win by staying hidden or sometimes by guessing the word, depending on your house rules.
Players take turns asking or answering vague questions that prove familiarity without naming the word directly (for example, “Would you bring this on vacation?”).
After a timer or a few rounds, the group votes. Wrong ejections help the imposter; catching them early helps the crew.
Commercial games like Spyfall ship fixed card decks and rules. This generator is a flexible host assistant: you choose headcount, imposter count, and vocabulary source, then copy fresh scripts in seconds.
Use it when you need themed custom words, classroom vocabulary, or a quick Discord round without buying another box. House rules — timers, guess-to-win, multi-imposter chaos — stay entirely yours.
Manual role assignment risks peeking, favoritism, or repeating the same imposter every round. A fair shuffle plus separated host and player text keeps trust high and setup under two minutes.
Copy-to-clipboard output works for hybrid groups — in-person players plus remote friends in private messages — without passing a phone around the table.
Party-ready controls without accounts or downloads.
One block lists the secret word and imposter seat numbers; another lists every player instruction.
Automatically limits imposters so two or more players always remain as crew.
Four curated pools of 20 words each, plus mixed mode combining every list.
Force an inside joke, lesson vocabulary, or holiday theme whenever you want.
Fair random imposter seats on every generate — no predictable seat patterns.
Grab the entire round text for notes, prints, or private messages.
Where a quick imposter setup saves time and arguments.
Start a word-guessing social game without buying a boxed version or installing an app.
Use short rounds as an ESL warm-up or vocabulary review with clear crew vs imposter roles.
Paste player prompts into DMs or stage channels while the host keeps the answer secret.
Icebreaker energy with light deduction — good for new teams that already know basic word games.
Kids and adults can play together; categories stay friendly and easy to explain.
Generate a round quickly between matches or during Just Chatting segments.
Small habits keep imposter games fun instead of frustrating.
Read player lines away from the group or send them privately so nobody accidentally sees the secret word or imposter list.
Decide up front whether imposters can win by guessing the word after elimination or only by surviving the vote.
Click generate again for a fresh shuffle and new word so repeat players cannot memorize earlier patterns.
A two-minute cap per round keeps imposters from stalling and crew from over-explaining.
New groups often learn faster with a single imposter before trying multi-imposter chaos.
Holiday, movie night, or lesson vocabulary makes the game feel personal without extra prep.
