HOW TO PLAY
1
THE DEAL
Everyone gets a secret word. Civilians see 'Apple'. You see 'Pear'.
2
THE DESCRIPTION
Go around the circle. Everyone gives one clue. You have to blend in with the Civilians.
3
THE VOTE
Time's up. Everyone votes on their phone for who they think is lying. Majority gets eliminated.
4
THE LOOP
If you survive the vote, the game continues. Round 2 begins with harder clues until only one side is left.
Caught? You Can Still Win.
If the Civilians vote you out, the game isn't over. You have one last shot: The Golden Guess. Correctly guess the Civilians' word (e.g., 'Apple') to steal the victory instantly.

WHY MR. WHITE IS THE BEST IMPOSTER GAME
Unlike basic imposter games where you just guess blindly, Mr. White gives you a similar word. You aren't just hiding; you are fighting to prove your word is the right one.
All Bluff. No Trivia.
Unlike Spyfall or complex board games, you don't need to know geography or pop culture. You just need to know how to lie.

About the Game
Everyone is given the same word, but one person is given a slightly different word, known as the 'Mr. White' word. Each player takes turns describing their word with a single word, while trying to avoid giving away their secret identity as the Mr. White player. The other players must use their detective skills to figure out who has the different word, and vote on who they think the Mr. White player is. Will you be able to fool your friends and uncover who is Mr. White?
FAQs
Mr White questions
Quick answers for groups deciding whether Mr White fits their next game night.
Is Mr White like Undercover?
Yes. Mr White is an Undercover-style word deduction game where most players share one word, one player has a similar word, and Mr White has to bluff without seeing either word.
Can you play Mr White without cards?
Yes. Pocket Party handles the words and secret roles digitally, so you can play without printed cards, pens, or a moderator.
What is the best strategy in Mr White?
Give clues that are specific enough to prove you know your word, but not so specific that Mr White can copy you or guess the secret.
Is Mr White good for online parties?
Yes. Mr White works well on video calls because each player can get a private role on their own device and discuss clues out loud.
