How to pick good impostor game words
A good impostor game word is one every player knows. If half the group has never heard of it, the clues get vague and everyone looks like the impostor. So pick the category to fit the group: Everyday Life works with anyone, while Football, Anime or Video Games shine when everybody is a fan.
You don't need to copy the lists or write anything down: the game picks a random word from the category you choose and shows it to everyone except the impostor. Open a list, tap the play button and pass the phone around.
