Free deck · 36 cards

Road Trip Guessing Game

Two bars of signal and four hours to go. Road Trip is a free 36-card starter deck of travel and roadside words that works fully offline — included free with the app, no purchase and no connection required.

For the long middle stretch

Dead zone. Still playable.

Road Trip is one of three starter decks included free with Forehead Party — no purchase, no subscription, no account. Its 36 cards are the vocabulary of getting somewhere: gas stations and rest stops, toll booths and mountain passes, boarding passes and hotel keys, campfires and trailheads and the welcome sign at the state line.

The whole app runs offline. Decks live on the phone, so a canyon with no bars, a plane at cruising altitude, or a campsite two hours past the last tower changes nothing about the game. That makes this the deck for exactly the moments a connected game quits on you.

Play it in the passenger seat, in the back of a rental car, at a rest stop, in an airport gate line, or around a campfire once the phones are useless for anything else. One phone, no pieces to lose under a seat.

Road trip deck questions

Before the next exit

What is the Road Trip deck?

A 36-card Forehead Party deck of travel and roadside vocabulary — gas stations, rest stops, toll booths, scenic overlooks, boarding passes, campfires, trailheads, and welcome signs.

Does it work without signal?

Yes. Forehead Party runs fully offline. Decks are stored on the iPhone, so no cell service, Wi-Fi, or account is needed — it plays the same in a canyon or on a plane in airplane mode.

Is it free?

Yes. Road Trip is one of three starter decks included free with the app. No purchase, no subscription, no unlock.

Who is it for?

Anyone stuck in transit together — families driving to a holiday, friends on a weekend trip, a carpool, an airport delay, or a campsite after dark. The words are plain enough for mixed ages.

How do you play?

Hold the iPhone to your forehead so you can't see the card. Everyone else gives clues. Tilt the phone down for a correct guess and up to pass, then hand it to the next player. The driver only listens and clues — never holds the phone.

No signal, no purchase, no setup

The game that survives the dead zone.
