Guessy app icon: Leda peeking over a blue Guessy card held against her forehead

Guessy

A forehead charades party game for iOS, in English and Turkish.

Aug 2026 – Present

A forehead charades party game with every built-in deck open, custom decks you write or generate with AI, tilt controls with haptic cues, and full Turkish support.

The forehead guessing game was the other staple of my English club: one person holds the phone up, everyone else acts, and the room gets loud. The apps we used kept most of their decks behind a weekly subscription, and the best known one was paid and English only, which left half the table out. I wanted a version where every deck is open from the first launch, Turkish is a first class language, and a group can write or generate a deck about its own inside jokes in seconds.

It started under the working name Forehead Charades and became Guessy on the way to the App Store. The face on the icon is Leda, the game's host: she holds the phone to her forehead so the players never have to explain the rules.
