THE COMPLETE MATCH

From the TV lobby to the champion

01

1. Put Fantest Party on the biggest screen

The Android TV or Windows app hosts the room, shows the public case board, and never reveals anyone’s private role.

02

2. Read one private file

Each phone reveals an Investigator clue or The Editor’s altered evidence. Memorize it, then put the phone down.

03

3. Talk, challenge, and order the story

The game happens around the table. Players discuss from memory and collaboratively arrange all six public events.

04

4. Vote, reveal, and finish the match

Vote privately for The Editor. The TV reveals the role, official timeline, votes, and score. After three different cases, the highest scorer becomes the match champion.

CASES 1–3

No repeats

Each match uses three different cases from the 20-case Friday Files library. Played cases are marked and skipped until the next match.
