How it works
One phone, secret chits, and a Wazir with a difficult guess. Gather four to ten friends and keep the screen to yourself when your turn comes.
Badshah Wazir Chor Sipahi gives each player a hidden part in a short guessing round. Four players use Badshah, Wazir, Chor and Sipahi. For a larger group, this version offers extra Citizen chits only after everyone agrees to that house format. Start with ten rounds, or pick a shorter match when teaching someone new.
When the phone names you, hold the large chit button to see your role. Release it before handing the phone over. Everyone else should look away. The Wazir makes one final guess after all players have seen their chits. A correct guess keeps the Wazir points; a wrong guess swaps those points with the Chor. Previous round scores stay safe.
Set the phone where everyone can see the score without blocking the game. Use nicknames so the next person knows whose turn it is. Before the first round, agree on the target, what counts as a point and which house rules apply. A scorekeeper records decisions made by your group; it cannot decide whether a catch, call or guess was fair.
Take a moment after each turn to read the new total aloud. If someone spots a mistake, correct it before starting the next turn. Keep one person in charge of the phone at a time so two taps do not record the same event twice. Pass the phone carefully and keep drinks away from it.
Your session is saved in this browser on this phone. Locking the screen or briefly switching apps does not end a saved match. Return using the same browser to continue. Private browsing, clearing website data or changing phones can remove the score sheet, so share a final copy if your group wants to keep it.
Open the page online once and wait for it to finish loading before heading somewhere without a signal. The visited helper can then reopen offline on the same browser. WhatsApp still needs a connection to send the message. A share button prepares text for you to check; nothing is posted to a group automatically.
Before you begin
How many players can join?
Four use the usual four roles. Five to ten need the clearly labelled extra-Citizen house format.
Can other players see my chit?
Only while you hold the reveal button. Release before passing; switching apps hides the chit too.
What are the default points?
Badshah 1000, Wazir 800, Sipahi 500 and Chor 0. A wrong Wazir guess swaps the Wazir and Chor points.
Does this replace the paper game?
It replaces the chits and arithmetic. Your friends still make the guesses together.
- Enter four to ten nicknames and choose your rounds.
- Pass the phone. Hold to see your chit, release to hide it, then pass.
- The Wazir guesses the Chor. Check the scores and deal again.

Privacy, offline play and saved sessions
Names, chits and score sheets stay in this browser. Clear the tool session when your group is done. Visit the tool once online and let it finish loading to use it offline later. Your browser may clear saved data; an online reload restores the tool, but cannot recover an erased local score sheet.
The share button opens WhatsApp with a text preview. You decide who receives it.
