Zayac
A multiplayer social deduction party game for iOS and Android where everyone knows the secret word except one player — the Rabbit. Friends give associations, catch the bluff, and vote while the conversation stays face-to-face.
Zayac is a multiplayer social deduction and word-guessing party game for friends, created as a DigitalTouch product for iOS and Android. Everyone at the table knows the secret word — except one player, the Rabbit. Friends take turns with short associations, try to show they are in on the word without giving it away, then vote on who is bluffing.
The phone is not meant to replace the conversation. People watch faces, catch tone, and argue it out. The app only keeps the secrets the room needs: who the Rabbit is, which word is hidden, and how the votes land.
Built for a real gathering
Zayac is designed for friends sitting together rather than for remote strangers on a lobby screen. It keeps the energy of an in-person group game while using each phone to distribute private information.
- roles are dealt privately on each device — no printed deck or paper rules sheet;
- joining is by QR code from the host screen;
- themes and words come from a library prepared with AI, and new sets are generated when a given game runs out for the chosen language;
- Ukrainian, Russian, and English are available in the room, matching the website.
How a round works
- Everyone receives the word except one Rabbit, who sees the theme and the word list but not which entry is secret.
- Players take turns saying short associations. Regular players must sound like they know the word without handing it to the Rabbit.
- After discussion, everyone picks who the Rabbit is in the app. A tie triggers a revote.
Why this is product work, not a card port
A usable party app has to protect private information across devices, keep setup friction near zero, and sustain content without making each round wait on generation. Zayac separates social play from system bookkeeping: the group talks; the software holds roles, words, and votes.
That combination — local multiplayer, private state, QR onboarding, and AI-assisted theme libraries — is the product shape DigitalTouch engineered for Zayac.
Available on iOS and Android
Zayac is available through the App Store and Google Play. Product information is on the official Zayac website.
The challenge
Party games fail when phones pull attention away from the table, when setup needs printed cards and a host, or when word sets run dry. Zayac had to keep the social game face-to-face, deal roles privately on each device, make joining as simple as a QR scan, and keep themes varied without stalling every round on generation.
What was built
DigitalTouch created Zayac as a DigitalTouch mobile product for iOS and Android. Players sit together, join a room by QR, and play association rounds where one person is the Rabbit. The app holds the secret — who the Rabbit is, which word is hidden, and who voted for whom — while conversation stays between people. Themes and word sets are prepared with AI into a library and replenished when a room exhausts available sets for the chosen language.
Technical approach
Zayac is structured as a local multiplayer party product: room join, private role and word distribution, association rounds, and in-app voting. Content is served from an AI-prepared library first, with new generation only when that room’s available sets for the selected language are used up — so variety does not force every round to wait on generation. The website and app share Ukrainian, Russian, and English.
