Field notes
The described turn alternates between a shared cover screen and private pages: the table sees whose turn it is and public results, while the current player sees their role and vote. The site says the fold is intended to make that handoff work without a host or players leaving the room. Listed scenarios range from a treasure-hunt setting to a family Christmas, with several shown at £2.99; the App Store release is presented as forthcoming.
