Your Game

To play live across phones, the game needs a tiny free database. Create a Firebase project (2 minutes, no cost) and paste its config below — it's saved on this device so you only do it once.

{{cfgError}}
Get your Firebase config
  1. Go to console.firebase.google.com → Add project (accept defaults; disable Analytics for speed).
  2. Left menu: Build → Realtime Database → Create Database. Pick a location, then Start in test mode.
  3. Gear → Project settings. Under Your apps, click the web icon </>, register an app, copy the firebaseConfig = { … } object.
  4. Paste the whole { … } block below and connect.
Test mode lets anyone with your project read/write for 30 days — perfect for casual play. To keep playing longer, set Realtime Database rules to public read/write.

{{settingsSummary}} — the host chooses.
Each team needs a Detective (sees the secret key) and at least one Agent (guesses). The Board role is a read-only view to cast on a TV.
Two detectives, two secret keys. Take turns cluing each other to find all 15 suspects before the clock runs out — and never accuse the Butler.
