How to play Who Wrote It?

  1. 1

    Vote on a story idea from the pack you picked.

  2. 2

    Fill in your blanks on your phone: a food, a place, someone in the room. Tap a suggestion or type your own.

  3. 3

    The AI writes a brand-new story around everyone's answers, and the narrator reads it aloud.

  4. 4

    One answer at a time, guess who wrote it. The author taps a decoy so their phone gives nothing away.

  5. 5

    Right guesses score, and every wrong guess scores for the author.

Tips to win

  • Write something your friends would expect from someone else. The best answers are ones nobody can pin on you.
  • Keep a straight face during the reveal. That's half the game.
