Hear Me Out

This one is made for a group. Someone reads the prompt, one brave person makes the case — why the cartoon villain is, honestly, a catch — and everyone votes valid or no. Pass the role of defender around the table so everyone gets a turn. In a Party Room, each player votes on their own phone and the verdict lands for everyone at once. Alone, you play judge: vote on each pick and see whether the community is as open-minded as you are.

Intensities

  • FamilyGrandma-proof
  • FunSilly, never awkward
  • AwkwardCringe and embarrassing
  • HardProvocative, uncomfortable
  • Spicy 18+Adults only
  • Unhinged 18+Adults only, no limits

Levels 5 and 6 are for adults only: you confirm you are 18 or older before they are dealt.

Questions

What does “hear me out” mean?

It’s what you say right before defending something indefensible — usually a very unlikely crush. The game turns it into a debate: one person pleads, the room judges.

How many players do you need?

It’s best with three or more, so there’s a defender and a jury, but you can play alone against the community vote. Party Rooms take up to sixteen phones.

Are the prompts about real people?

No. Every prompt is an original archetype written by Wabiro — the villain, the talking appliance, the overly polite ghost — never a real or named person.

Is it free?

Levels 1 to 4 are free with no account. Levels 5 and 6 are 18+, behind an age confirmation, with a free part and the full deck in the Games Pass (one-time purchase, also included in Wabiro+).
