A Ukrainian IT professional created "Alias+" — a team word game with a military dictionary: it's free and can work completely offline
System administrator Oleksiy Galkovich, who currently defends the country in the ranks of the Defense Forces, developed "Alias+" - a team word game with a special military dictionary. The application is completely free, does not contain ads and works even where there is no mobile connection.
System administrator Oleksiy Galkovich, who currently defends the country in the ranks of the Defense Forces, developed "Alias+" - a team word game with a special military dictionary. The application is completely free, does not contain ads and works even where there is no mobile connection.
"Alias+" is a classic word game in Ukrainian, but completely adapted to military realities and military humor. The game base includes 1402 words and 16 different topics (infantry, artillery, medics, UAVs, armored vehicles and sappers). All words are checked against real military usage.
In addition, the application is completely free and does not contain any advertising. If desired, users can purchase the PRO version (a one-time payment that opens the possibility of creating their own dictionaries) or leave a tip to support the developer.
How the app works
The developer took into account the difficult conditions in which military personnel find themselves, so he created the application as autonomous and convenient as possible:
Offline: The game works completely offline. You can play on one phone, passing it around, or by creating a room for multiple devices via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth — no internet connection or network is required.
Flexible round presets: ready-made modes are available (fast, standard, long), as well as the ability to individually configure the timer, penalties for guessed/missed words, and the "last word" rule.
After the round is complete, the result can be adjusted with a single touch, minimizing any disputes during scoring.
The game process consists of three simple steps:
teams are created, themes and round presets are selected. The built-in digital die can be used to determine the first move;
the player is given 40 seconds to explain as many words as possible to his team without naming the word itself and its cognates;
Control is done by swiping: swipe right - the word is guessed (plus point), swipe left - not guessed (minus point).
The Alias+ app is now available for free download on iOS and Android mobile devices. You can find and download the game in the official App Store and Google Play stores.
