How to play Impostor

  1. Get your card

    Everyone but one sees the same basketball player. The impostor only learns that they are the impostor.

  2. Give two rounds of clues

    Each clue is 1 to 5 words. Say too much and the impostor catches on. Say too little and you look like the impostor.

  3. Argue and vote

    The whole table argues and votes inside one 60-second window.

  4. Settle it

    Vote out the impostor and the crew wins. Anything else and the impostor wins.
