Spending quality time with friends and family is the Backstabber mission.

Drawing inspiration from a century old parlor game, Backstabbers leverages the use of technology to produce a unique elimination game set in the real world.

Unlike most party games, Backstabbers uses “Thin-Tech” to give players the maximum social interaction possible. We take typically negative emotions like suspicion, subversiveness, guile and exercise them in a fun and positive way.

Scoring, setting timers, randomly assigning roles, and notifying players were all aspects that can now be performed by technology. Players get to enjoy a smooth game play experience and need only look at their app infrequently. For a deeper dive into the benefits of our game see this page.

Simplified Murder Mystery

As an uncomplicated murder mystery app, there are no long narratives to digest, complicated characters to improvise or any set ending. The outcome in Backstabbers always changes, has a fluid and dynamic game experience, and the clues come from observing your fellow players.

Who Are We?

The Parlor mission is to provide a fun game for a budget conscious family of five or a group of fifteen people, while keeping our app affordable. Our basic game is free, with premium game dynamics offered as in-app purchases. Backstabbers can be used as an added layer of fun to any social setting or gathering.
