Show HN: Truth Wave – Community Driven Truth or Myth Game

https://truth-wave.lovable.app/
2•liltofu•2h ago
I built a web game where anyone can submit a fact or a lie anonymously (no authentication or login required). You can also guess on others' truth or made-up myths. Think "Two Truths and a Lie" but crowdsourced and with scoring.

What it is:

Players submit interesting claims such as "I think bitcoin can reach $1MM." Other players vote on whether each submission is Truth or Myth.

Why this works:

The best part is the community creates all the content. I've been amazed by the creative myths people invent and the bizarre-but-true facts they dig up. Some submissions have stumped 90%+ of players.

What surprised me:

Players are incredibly good at crafting believable myths. The voting patterns reveal fascinating insights about what kinds of "facts" people instinctively trust vs. doubt. The HN crowd tends to be skeptical of everything - curious to see how you perform compared to other communities I've tested this with.

Play here: https://truth-wave.lovable.app/ Would love feedback on the mechanics and any interesting submissions you come up with!

Will incorporate more features as statements increase.
