Google Play Best of 2023 — Play Pass

The idea

A party game for India: social deception with voice chat, for friends who wanted to hang out inside a game during lockdown.

What happened

Over a million installs in its first 30 days, and 350K daily players within weeks. It went on to 25M players and a Google Play Best of 2023 award.

What I learned

People don't come for the game; they come for each other. Design the hangout, and the game takes care of itself.

coffee, a walk, or a hard problem?

Let's make something

Find me at the SPC office in Bengaluru, usually Wednesdays. Coffee, a walk, hacking user acquisition — all yes.
