About Alibi — a game for two people and one phone

Alibi — a game for two people and one phone is a free online Casual game that runs right in your browser. There is nothing to download and no account to create: press Play and you are in. It works on desktop, laptop, tablet and mobile.

You and a friend swear you were together last night. The phone is the detective: it asks you both the same question, you answer in secret and pass it over, and then it shows you whether your two stories match. Every answer costs something — an account nobody can confirm costs more, one with a witness in it costs less, and anything the detective is hot on costs more each time you lean on it, so the safe answer stops being safe. Agree your story out loud before it starts, because you don't get to talk again. Sixteen places, ten crimes, three scenes a night, and a written statement at the end with every crack in it marked.
