Typecast turns any movie into a game worth watching.
Great movie or guilty pleasure, Typecast makes it worth watching together. Turns out stakes are the best special effect.
One draft, seven tropes ranked by confidence, a room full of people who suddenly care very much about whether the hero gets a redemption arc.
Choose tonight's film and match it to a genre in the app. That unlocks its trope library — every cliché, callback, and cinematic sin it's likely to commit.
Players take turns in snake draft order, each claiming tropes they think will actually happen. No two players can hold the same trope. Choose wisely — or at least confidently.
Order your seven tropes from most to least confident. Your ranking is your bet. The higher a trope sits, the more it's worth when it lands.
Before the movie starts, make it interesting. Double down on your best trope, short an opponent's pick, or raise the stakes on a trope you believe in. One move each. Choose carefully.
Points land when your tropes hit the screen. Credits roll, scores settle. Most points wins — and the movie made every call.
The movie is the referee. No one can argue with the screen.
Jump scare in the first act. Final girl survives alone. The villain cannot be killed.
First contact goes wrong. The AI turns on its creators. Someone makes the sacrifice play.
One-liner right after the kill. Improbable car chase. Villain had a point, actually.
Airport chase in the third act. Miscommunication keeps them apart. Grand gesture in the rain.
The twist recontextualizes everything. There's a mole in the group. The protagonist was wrong all along.
The confrontation that changes everything. A secret finally surfaces. Someone walks out the door.
The chosen one doubts themselves. Ancient prophecy becomes inconvenient. Magic has a price.
The humiliation spiral. Mistaken identity goes too far. Unlikely duo becomes inseparable.
