Mischief House

One of you is lying. Do your chores anyway.

A social deduction party game where every houseguest has a chore list, and one of them is quietly wrecking yours.

Wishlist now or join the Discord for playtests and beta access.

How to play

Keep the house running. Catch who is tearing it apart.

Everyone moves into a shared house and gets a private chore list. Move the toaster to the bathroom. Don't let anyone touch the tools. Finish your chores and score points.

The Menace gets chores too, but only as cover. Their real job is snatching items, jamming doors, cutting the lights, then drifting back to the dishes like nothing happened.

Objectives

Round 3
  • Move the toaster to the bathroom.
  • Don't let anyone touch the tools.
  • Finish your chores, score points.
  • Find the Menace before it's too late.

Play both sides

The Menace covers their tracks.

Every quiet sabotage wipes suspicion off the Menace's name. A sloppy Menace gets caught. A careful one walks free.

After each round, the house votes in secret. Nobody sees the results until the match is over. If the votes stick, the hardest-working houseguest wins. If they don't, you all just lost to someone who spent three rounds doing the washing up.
