Imposter! (New Game, Sign-Up here)

[VashTheStampede]

This is a relatively simple game, but I'm sure I can make it seem complicated...

Each game will have 4 players and a video-game related theme. Maybe a genre, a system, or a specific game.

Each round, 3 of the players will be DMed the "Secret Word", related to the theme of the game. The 4th player will be the Imposter. Each player will, in order, post 1 word related to the Secret Word. The Imposter, not knowing the word, is going to try and bluff their way through the game and try to figure out the word.

The round continues until one of the players declares they think they know who the imposter is, naming them. If they are right, they get a point. If they are wrong, the Imposter gets a point. Then the Imposter gets a chance to guess the Secret Word for an additional point.

Also, on any of their turns, the Imposter can out themselves and guess the Secret Word. If they are correct, they get 2 points. If they are wrong, they lose a point.

Most points after 5 rounds is the winner.

I'm... curious. I'll give it a try

 

[VashTheStampede]

Yeah this could be a huge clusterfuck but it could be fun. Appreciate your willingness to be a guinea pig

 

[Ben]

This sounds interesting.

 

[Benzine]

Sure

 

[dimmerwit]

Why not?

(famous last words...)

 

[shortkut]

I can be a guinea pig… and I promise not to ruin your first attempt with @Cole this time

 

[Jon]

I've seen youtube shorts of this game. It typically ends in hilarity. I'll try if you need another guinea pig.

This sounds exactly like the board game chameleon. Really fun. Will probably be a lot less stressful than wolf, but still I'll sit out unless you have trouble finding enough players.
