Who Am I?

Choose a category

Round time

Hold the phone to your forehead so others describe the word. Tilt the phone down for “Got it”, up for “Skip”. Or just tap the buttons.

Who Am I is a fun guessing game: you can’t see your own word (a character, animal or job) and have to guess it by asking yes/no questions. Our online version has words in categories, a timer and a score. Hold the phone to your forehead and start guessing!

How to play

  1. Choose a category and the round length.
  2. Hold the phone facing the others (on your forehead) — don’t look at the word.
  3. Players describe or act out the word while you guess.
  4. Got it — tap “Got it” (or tilt the phone down); missed — tap “Skip”.
  5. When time runs out, you see the score. Play again or change category.
