A backwards party game for iPhone

Say it backwards. Hear what happens.

Listen to a mystery word in reverse, imitate the sound, then flip your recording. The reveal is equal parts skill, surprise, and beautifully strange.

Your videos stay on your device.

The trick

Three beats. One very weird reveal.

No instructions marathon. Pass the phone, press the button, and let the backwards magic do the rest.

Hear a word played entirely in reverse. It sounds like nonsense. That is the point.

Hold to record your best impression of the backwards sound—face, voice, confidence and all.

Backwords reverses your attempt. Watch it forward and discover what you actually said.

Ways to play

Play the daily mystery, build your own round, open a themed pack, or reverse any short video just because you can.

A fresh mystery word, every day. Listen, record, guess, reveal, and keep the streak alive.

Create custom words, add hints, hand off the phone, and run your own round.

Ready-made themed rounds for game night, with flexible guesses and reveal timing.

Record a short clip, reverse the whole thing, save the result, or share it with someone you trust.

Private by design

The funniest part of Backwords can also be the most personal. That is why recordings are processed on your iPhone—not uploaded to us.

Play without creating a profile or handing us your email address.

Your camera and microphone recordings are reversed and stored locally on your device.

No advertising SDKs, cross-app tracking, or behavioral profiles.

A clip leaves Backwords only when you intentionally save or share it using iOS.

Ready when it is
