Each player says **one word** related to the secret word\n\n- Regular players try to give clues without being too obvious\n- Impostors try to guess and blend in based on others' words\n\n2. **Final Discussion**: After 2 Rounds open a discussion about who might be the impostor\n\n### 🗳️ **Voting \u0026 Results**\n\n- All players vote for who they think is the impostor\n- Reveal roles and see who won:\n  - **Regular Players Win**: If they correctly identify all impostors\n  - **Impostors Win**: If they avoid detection or correctly guess the secret word\n\n### 🎯 **Strategy Tips**\n\n- **For Regular Players**: Give specific but not obvious clues, watch for players who seem unsure\n- **For Impostors**: Listen carefully to others' clues, ask strategic questions, don't be too vague or too specific\n\n---\n\n## ✨ Features\n\n### 🎯 **Core Gameplay**\n\n- **Impostor Mechanics**: One or more players don't know the secret word and must bluff their way through\n- **Flexible Configuration**: Customize player count (3-10), impostor count, categories, and difficulty\n- **Multi-Language Support**: Available in English and German with `next-intl`\n- **Hint System**: Optional hints for impostors to level the playing field\n\n### 🌐 **Progressive Web App**\n\n- **📱 Installable**: Add to home screen on any device\n- **🔌 Offline First**: Play without internet connection\n- **📊 Local Data**: All game data stored locally with IndexedDB\n\n### 🛠️ **Developer Experience**\n\n- **🎨 Modern UI**: Built with Shadcn and Tailwind CSS\n- **⚡ Type Safety**: Full TypeScript coverage\n- **🔄 State Management**: Persistent game state with Zustand\n- **🚀 Performance**: Next.js 15 with Turbopack for fast development\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Quick Start\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- **Node.js** 18.0 or later\n- **npm**, **yarn**, or **pnpm**\n\n### Installation\n\n```bash\n# Clone the repository\ngit clone https://github.com/KnotzerIO/find-the-impostor.git\ncd find-the-impostor\n\n# Install dependencies\nnpm install\n# or\nyarn install\n# or\npnpm install\n```\n\n### Development\n\n```bash\n# Start development server with Turbopack\nnpm run dev\n```\n\nOpen [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) in your browser.\n\n### Building for Production\n\n```bash\n# Build the application\nnpm run build\n\n# Start production server\nnpm run start\n```\n\n---\n\n## 🏗️ Tech Stack\n\n### **Frontend Framework**\n\n- **[Next.js 15.3](https://nextjs.org/)** - React framework with App Router\n- **[React 19](https://reactjs.org/)** - UI library with latest features\n- **[TypeScript 5](https://www.typescriptlang.org/)** - Type-safe JavaScript\n\n### **UI \u0026 Styling**\n\n- **[Tailwind CSS 4](https://tailwindcss.com/)** - Utility-first CSS framework\n- **[Radix UI](https://www.radix-ui.com/)** - Unstyled, accessible UI components\n- **[Lucide React](https://lucide.dev/)** - Beautiful \u0026 consistent icons\n- **[class-variance-authority](https://cva.style/)** - Component variant management\n\n### **State \u0026 Data Management**\n\n- **[Zustand](https://zustand-demo.pmnd.rs/)** - Lightweight state management\n- **[Dexie.js](https://dexie.org/)** - IndexedDB wrapper for local storage\n- **[next-intl](https://next-intl-docs.vercel.app/)** - Internationalization\n\n### **Analytics \u0026 Monitoring**\n\n- **[Umami](https://umami.is/)** - Privacy-focused web analytics\n- **[Sentry](https://sentry.io/)** - Error tracking and performance monitoring\n\n### **Development Tools**\n\n- **[ESLint](https://eslint.org/)** - Code linting\n- **[Turbopack](https://turbo.build/pack)** - Fast development builds\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fknotzerio%2Ffind-the-impostor","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fknotzerio%2Ffind-the-impostor","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fknotzerio%2Ffind-the-impostor/lists"}
