A nail-biting party game where you must avoid your own NG word while drawing it out of others
Every player is given an NG word — but only the others can see yours. Talk casually while trying to make opponents say their own NG word; saying yours means elimination. The strongest tactic is silence, but to keep things lively this version adds an "elimination vote" so quiet players can also be voted out. Word changes mid-game, shared NG words, and other unique features add depth to a classic.
Chat freely. Steer the conversation to draw out the others' NG words.
Whoever says their NG word is eliminated. Even if the meaning is different, if the word is contained, it counts (e.g., NG word "king" — saying "stockings" gets you out).
When all but one player has been eliminated, the last one standing wins.
Dokopa offers fine-grained rule customization.
These settings are a good place to start.
Dokopa includes 1,600+ prompt pairs — enough to play for 3 days straight without repeating.
Avoid saying your own NG word, draw out others', and be the last one standing — you win
Saying your NG word eliminates you — you lose
Everyone needs to play aggressively, or no NG words come out and the game stalls
Set a time limit and rule that "if no winner is decided, everyone loses" for extra tension
If you can't draw out the NG word directly, target a related word (e.g., aiming for "tai-yaki" when the NG word is "tire")
Look for topics that two players' NG words have in common — targeting multiple players at once is less suspicious and more effective
Dokopa has 1,600+ prompts. The same prompt won't repeat within a single game. Check the Dokopa app for the full list.
