Try a tiny round
Read one aloud. See what happens.
No download, form or room code. These are the kinds of questions Chinwag uses to give the conversation somewhere to go.

The whole game loop
One phone. Zero setup.
The iPhone app keeps the game deliberately simple. Nobody creates a room, enters a name or waits for everyone else to install anything.
Pick the mood
Choose one pack or mix several. Decks written for adult rooms stay hidden until the app confirms everyone playing is an adult.
Pass the iPhone
Read aloud, point, vote or pick a side. Tap when the room is ready for the next card.
Run it back
Play another 20-card round without immediately repeating the previous cards.
The real iPhone experience
See the room change, one card at a time.
Choose a mood, pass one iPhone and let each question earn the next story. These screens show the current Chinwag app, not a browser mock-up.
New Friends is different
The questions earn their way in.
A New Friends round does not jump from names to forced vulnerability. It deliberately moves through three stages, giving the room time to find its rhythm.

Before the first card deals
Set what the room can handle.
One card that lands wrong, parents in the room, new colleagues, someone's ex, and a group quietly stops opening the app a second time. Chinwag lets the host set the ceiling first.
Heat: Light, Medium or Everything
A ceiling on how personal a card can get, set before the round starts. Light for a room that has just met, Everything once the group is comfortable.
Fit the room
Three switches, named for what they remove. No drinking skips every card that mentions alcohol or drinking. No dating or romance skips cards about dating, exes, crushes and weddings. No confessions skips every “Never have I ever” card. Everything else in the round stays. Built for a work night, a dry event or a church group as easily as any other night.
Family Mode
Limits the round to six reviewed mixed-age decks, one of them a curated slice of New Friends, and turns off Duo. All six are free in Family Mode, no Plus needed. Choose it the moment anyone under 18 is playing, from a mixed-age family Christmas to a birthday with cousins of every age.
Fun without the weird bit
The room stays in control.
Chinwag is designed for adults who want a spark, not a social ambush.
Nothing to disconnect
One phone, passed by hand. No other device to lose signal, freeze or get kicked from the game, and no Wi-Fi needed to keep a round going.
No profiles to build
No account, friend graph or personal answers stored in the cloud.
No explanation needed
Skip any question without turning it into another conversation.
What you are really downloading
Confidence the night will not stay awkward.
The questions are only the spark. Chinwag helps you become the person who gets everybody involved, turns introductions into stories and gives the group something worth remembering tomorrow.
