Gather a room, pick a mode, and find the impostor.

Lines n' Lies is a multiplayer party game you play with friends. Create or join a room with a shareable code, and the host kicks off rounds across modes — spot the impostor, draw and guess, or name the movie. A live leaderboard and an end-of-round podium keep everyone in it.

The UIKit client talks to a custom Node.js websocket server I built for low-latency realtime, so a full room stays perfectly in sync — every guess, drawing and score lands at the same moment for every player. It ships with six full color themes — switch between them below to recolor every screen.

  • Live rooms with a host and shareable room codes
  • Multiple game modes — impostor, draw & guess, name the movie
  • Live drawing canvas with a turn queue
  • Sub-second realtime sync across every player
  • Live leaderboard and end-of-round podium
  • Six full color themes
  • Custom Node.js websocket backend
