Comprehensive Game Guide
Welcome to the official PartAI manual. Here you will find all the necessary information to start your first game round, master the different game modes, and answer frequently asked questions. PartAI is designed to be intuitive, but a look at the details can give you the decisive advantage in the game.
First Steps: Start Playing in 3 Minutes
- Navigate to the 'Lobbies' area. Here you have the choice: Create a new, private lobby for yourself and your friends or join a public round. If you have received an invitation link, simply follow it.
- Once you are in the lobby, the host takes the lead. Various settings can be made: Which AI model should be used? How many rounds should be played? Which language is preferred?
- The game begins as soon as all players are 'Ready'. Don't worry: before each round, there are short explanations of what to do.
- After each round, you will see an evaluation. Points are awarded based on speed, creativity, or successful deception - depending on the mode. The overall winner is crowned at the end of the game.
Important: If a player leaves the game prematurely, the round can usually continue. Our systems dynamically adapt requirements to the remaining number of players.
Game Modes Overview
Detailed Rules
PartAI offers depth for those who seek it. Each mode relies on specific scoring algorithms, which we disclose here for advanced players.
Points
Points are lobby-based and used for the scoreboard in this round/lobby. When a lobby is closed, lobby points are deleted.
Scoring
Points are lobby-based and power the scoreboard. Depending on the mode, speed, votes, or hits decide.
- Faster = more points (e.g., Classic).
- Votes determine points (e.g., AI Deception, Fake News, Unfinished Story).
- Lobby points reset when the lobby closes.
Fair play & safety
- Do not share personal data in prompts or answers.
- Private lobbies stay private – share links only with your group.
- Short rounds and clear rules keep things fair.
Credits & shop
Credits are optional units for certain AI models. You can use one‑time passes or a subscription.
Troubleshooting
- No lobby visible? Refresh the list or create a new one.
- Round stuck? The host can finalize or set everyone to ready.
- Login issues? Check spam and verify your email.
