Description
The phone shows a card and starts a one-minute timer. That’s it. The actual game happens at the table.
CopyCats is a party game for three or more people. Everyone gets the same prompt and writes six answers at the same time. Then you read them aloud and see who was thinking the same thing.
Sometimes matching is exactly what you want. Sometimes it’s the worst thing you can do.
HOW TO PLAY
A game has three one-minute rounds:
THE HERD
Try to write what everyone else is likely to write.
Score 1 point for every answer that matches another player’s.
LONE WOLVES
Do the opposite.
You score only for answers nobody else wrote.
LIGHTNING
Six prompts, one answer for each, all in a single minute.
After every round, read your answers aloud and let the host enter the scores. Everyone plays at once, including the host, so there’s no waiting around for your turn.
YOU MAKE THE CALLS
CopyCats doesn’t judge answers. It isn’t a quiz, and there’s no database deciding whether two words mean the same thing.
Before you play, choose how strict you want to be:
Loose: “bake” can match “baking”
Normal: “couch” can match “sofa”
Strict: answers must match word for word
Can’t agree? Vote on it. Majority wins.
Your answers never go into the app. CopyCats can’t see, save or send them. They stay on your paper until you read them to the table.
WHAT’S FREE
The Icebreakers pack includes more than 100 prompts and is free forever. This isn’t a timed trial, and there are no ads.
A subscription unlocks ten more packs, bringing the total to more than 1,000 prompts. It also removes the limit on how often you can swap a prompt you don’t feel like playing.
11 PACKS FOR DIFFERENT TABLES
Icebreakers
For groups where not everyone knows each other yet.
Friendship Test
Inside jokes, shared history and stories only your group remembers.
Homeroom
School memories, embarrassing teachers and questionable hairstyles.
Career Day
What your friends imagine you actually do all day.
Hall of Shame
Bad decisions that eventually became good stories.
Rumor Mill
You didn’t hear it from us.
Knock on Wood
Lucky socks, strange omens and attempts to predict the future.
Come Clean
Fears, dreams and things people rarely say out loud.
Lovestruck
For couples, crushes and hopeless romantics.
Gross Out
The pack that makes everyone groan and keep playing.
One secret 18+ pack
Best saved for a table where you know everyone very well.
Each pack has its own switch. Turn off anything that doesn’t suit the group. Handy when the table includes friends, coworkers, parents or all three.
The app also keeps track of prompts you’ve already played, so you won’t keep seeing the same ones.
GOOD FOR
Birthdays where half the guests have only just met. Long dinners that stopped being about dinner hours ago. Road trips, cabins and campsites without a signal.
Play with three people or twelve. There’s no fixed upper limit. If everyone fits around the table, everyone can play.
WHAT YOU NEED
Give each player a pen and something to write on. Notes on another phone will work, but paper is more fun. An answer read from a crumpled napkin simply hits differently.
NO WI-FI. NO ACCOUNTS. NO ADS.
CopyCats works completely offline. You need one phone for the whole table, and nobody has to create an account.
MORE THAN 1,000 TESTED PROMPTS
We tested and trimmed the prompt library before release. Prompts that made everyone give the same answers were cut. So were prompts where nobody matched at all.
The ones that remained give you a real chance of matching without making the result obvious.
If a prompt falls flat, or you have an idea for a new pack, send us a message from Settings. We read the feedback and use it when planning future packs.
