Pretend You're Xyzzy is a web-based clone of the party card game Cards Against Humanity, packaged as a Java web application with both a game server and browser client. Players connect through a web lobby on hosted or self-hosted Tomcat servers to play multiplayer card rounds with friends.

Use cases

  • play cards against humanity online with friends in a browser
  • self-host a cards against humanity clone server
  • host private multiplayer party card game sessions
  • run an open-source CAH-style web game on my own server
  • play a fill-in-the-blank card game without installing anything
  • find an alternative to paid online CAH services

When to choose

  • you want a browser-based, no-install Cards Against Humanity experience for a group of friends
  • you need to self-host a game server for a private group or community
  • you run Java/Tomcat infrastructure and want a ready-to-deploy WAR game app
  • you want an open-source clone whose rules, card decks, and logging you can inspect and modify

When to avoid

  • you need support for modern application servers - only Tomcat 7 is known to work
  • you want a native desktop or mobile app rather than a web client
  • you expect a polished, bug-free product - the project itself warns the webapp is still in development
  • you need turnkey deployment without extra work - the official build is Maven-based and Docker images are third-party
