How to play: rules

  1. Everyone gets the secret word except one player, who is out of the loop and only knows the category.
  2. Each player asks once and answers once. Use Send question / Send answer, or confirm a voice turn. Each human step has 60 seconds; active typing can add up to 30 seconds.
  3. Then free questions: whoever was just asked picks someone to ask, until someone presses Vote.
  4. Everyone votes for who they think is out of the loop. Then the one out of the loop is shown and guesses the word from 7 words.
  5. Points: +100 for everyone who voted for the one out of the loop, +100 to them for guessing the word. Most points after the last round wins.

How to play – step by step

  1. One player is out – Everyone gets the secret word except one player, who only knows the category: the outsider. Tap your card to hide it from anyone looking at your screen.
  2. Ask and answer – Question time: each player asks the next one a question about the word, out loud or in the chat, and taps Next. Ask so insiders get it but the outsider can’t tell what it is. Then free questions until someone presses Vote.
  3. Vote – Everyone votes for who they think is out of the loop. Votes stay hidden until all are in.
  4. Last chance, then points – The outsider is shown, then guesses the word from 7 words. +100 for everyone who voted for the outsider, +100 to the outsider for the right word. Most points after the last round wins.

History & origins

Who’s Out? is Jawna’s version of the social hidden-word game known regionally as Barra Al Salfa, or being outside the topic.

Its background is the broader party tradition of giving clues, spotting bluffing and discovering who lacks information shared by the group.

Jawna uses categories, clue choices and voting in short rounds. These features describe this version; no unsupported ancient origin or single inventor is assigned to the shared idea.
