82/100

Inreverse is one of those brilliantly simple party games that creates instant chaos and laughter in a room. The premise is straightforward but mentally taxing: you record yourself or a friend saying a short phrase, and the app plays it back in reverse. You then have to mimic that gibberish as closely as possible, record it, and let the app reverse *that* to see if it sounds anything like the original phrase.

It sounds easy until you actually try to wrap your vocal cords around backwards phonetics. The results are almost always hilarious, ranging from eerie precision to complete nonsense. It’s the perfect 'pass-and-play' icebreaker because it requires zero prior gaming knowledge and rewards the boldest, silliest performers in the group. The interface is clean and stays out of the way, focusing entirely on the audio fun.

Fixed a nasty crash occurring during the very first recording. We are really sorry we didn't catch this one earlier!
THE FIRST TRULY UNIQUE PARTY GAME!
Watch our lame demo video at http://inreverse.me or read the reviews if you don't believe this can be funny!
HOW TO PLAY
1. Every game round involves two players, but if you have more people you can break into teams and change team every round.
2. The First Player secretly records a short fragment of a song a capella while the Second Player is not listening.
3. The Second Player listens to the recorded a cappella in reverse and tries to guess the song at once.
4. If the Second Player can’t guess it, then he tries to repeat the reversed version by recording it fragment by fragment.
5. When all fragments are recorded, Second Player listens to them all together reversed back and makes his final guess! If he has repeated fragment close enough he should hear the original song. Or something very similar!

Inreverse is a unique social game that will have you and your friends in stitches. Based on the classic 'backwards talk' challenge, the app records your voice, flips it, and challenges you to mimic the reversed audio. When the app flips your mimicry back to 'normal,' you'll hear how close (or hilariously far) you were to the original phrase. It's an addictive, easy-to-play game that’s perfect for parties, gatherings, or just killing time with a friend.
