Questions
Is Chardz free?
Yes. Chardz is free to download on Google Play, and 15 decks are free to play. Earn tickets by finishing rounds and spend them on premium decks, or subscribe to Chardz Premium for every deck, all team avatars and no ads.
Is Chardz like Heads Up!?
Yes. It's the same forehead-guessing format that Heads Up! made popular: the phone shows a word, your friends give clues, and you tilt to answer. Chardz is an independent game and isn't affiliated with Warner Bros.
Is there an iPhone version?
Chardz is on Android for now. On an iPhone or iPad, you can play the free browser version of the game on this site.
How many players do you need?
Two is enough: one person guesses and one gives clues. For bigger groups, use team mode to name your teams, pick avatars and play a tournament with a leaderboard.
Can I add my own words?
Yes. Create custom decks with your own words, inside jokes or party themes, and mix them with the built-in decks.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. The decks are stored on your phone, so you can play without Wi-Fi or mobile data.
Is it good for kids?
Chardz is rated Everyone on Google Play. Animals, Food, Objects and Act It Out are great for young kids; Movies, Books and Famous People suit older players.
