About PartyCade

PartyCade is a collection of free party games that you play in your web browser with friends. You make a room, send the link, and everyone joins from a phone, tablet or computer. There is nothing to download and guests are welcome.

What we make

PartyCade has more than a dozen games, including drawing and guessing, social deduction games such as Mafia and Impostor, comedy games, card games and a property-trading board game. Each game is built and tuned for playing with friends, either in the same room or over a call.

Each game has its own page with the rules, a step-by-step guide and strategy tips. We also publish guides on hosting game nights and choosing games for your group.

How the games work

Every room has a host whose browser runs the timers and keeps the game moving. If the host disappears, the next active player takes over. If your browser closes during a game, you can come back within five minutes and keep your seat, score and secret role.

Secrets stay secret. Words, roles and hands are only ever sent to the player who should see them, and the rules of the database stop other players from reading them.

Keeping rooms friendly

Rooms are private by default and can only be joined with the link or the room code. Chat filters mask slurs and strong swear words, web addresses are masked wherever players type, and the host can remove anyone from a room. Anyone can report a problem from inside a room, and reports go straight to the site owner.

Creating an account requires confirming that you are at least 16 and agree to the Terms of Service.

How PartyCade pays for itself

Playing is free. The site shows a small number of ads in menus, lobbies and between rounds, never over a round in progress. Ads and analytics cookies only switch on after you agree in the cookie banner, and you can change your choice at any time with Cookie settings in the footer.

Languages

PartyCade is available in English, German, French and Arabic, with Arabic laid out right to left. You can switch language from the menu in the header.
