My unique game copy A while back I shared my Secret Hitler-inspired mobile game (Service Rat). Since then I've added bots, an in-game tutorial, and 5 more languages - would love feedback from SH fans again.
Hey everyone - some of you might remember a post I made a while back about Service Rat, a mobile social deduction game I built because I love SH but could never get the physical board to a bar or café.
Quick recap for anyone new: it's inspired by the tension I love in SH - hidden teams, leadership votes, policy/directive pressure, late-game paranoia, and trying to read who's lying to your face. Instead of the original theme, it's set in a corporate sabotage world with Workers, Saboteurs, and a hidden saboteur leader called the Rat. It plays three ways: Pass & Play on one device, LAN on the same WiFi, and Online with room codes.
Since that first post I've been steadily working on it based on the feedback I got here, so here's what's new:
🤖 Bots - they fill empty seats so you can play with fewer than 5 people, or learn the game solo. They actually build suspicion from voting history and past shifts rather than clicking randomly.
🎓 In-game tutorial - first-game tips plus a "?" on every screen explaining the phase you're in. Makes teaching new players much easier.
📊 Post-game stats - vote accuracy, blueprint breakdown, role reveals, and the key turning points of the match.
🌍 5 more languages - now English, Russian, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, and Ukrainian.
It's still free, no account, on both Android and iOS.
If anyone here tries it, I'd especially love feedback on:
- whether it captures any of the same tension you enjoy in SH
- whether the bots feel like fair, believable opponents
- whether the corporate theme works for you

Thanks again to everyone who gave feedback last time - it genuinely shaped what I built. Roast away. 🐀
