8 Games Like Liar's Bar: Bluffing and Deadly Table Games

Checked · Steam US Fix a fact

Buckshot RouletteOnly FalseDEAD MAN'S HAND: Card Roulette Action

Liar's Bar sits four players around a dirty bar table and makes lying a matter of life and death. Get caught bluffing in Liar's Deck and you play a round of Russian roulette. Lose a challenge in Liar's Dice and you drink poison. It's online only, and still in Early Access.

These eight games keep either the table and the deadly stakes, or the lying and the shouting over voice chat. The first five play most like Liar's Bar. The last three are social deduction games for bigger groups.

Buckshot Roulette

Buckshot Roulette
  • Price on Steam (US) $2.99
  • Players Solo against the Dealer, or 4 players online
  • Platforms PC, Linux
  • Released
  • Steam Deck Unsupported
  • Steam reviews Overwhelmingly Positive, 95%

Who it's for Groups who want the same deadly table, with a shotgun instead of cards.

Buckshot Roulette is Russian roulette with a 12-gauge shotgun, and its four-seat multiplayer table is the closest thing to another night at Liar's Bar. You bargain, beg and betray your way around the table until one player walks away rich, and items add a few tricks to the odds.

There's less lying and more nerve: nobody hides a card, you just decide who takes the next shell. Alone, you play three rounds against the Dealer in 15 to 20 minutes, and Double or Nothing lets you push your luck for as long as you last.

Only False
  • Price on Steam (US) $5.99
  • Players 2 to 4 players online
  • Platforms PC
  • Released February 2025, in Early Access
  • Steam Deck Unknown (not tested yet)
  • Steam reviews Very Positive, 92%

Who it's for Four friends who want Liar's Deck with a different twist.

Only False plays closest to Liar's Bar's card game. In its Rotten Deck mode you place a card face down, claim it matches the table card, and the next player can check it. Whoever is caught lying, or calls a lie that wasn't one, has to pick a trigger that may set off a deadly trap.

The second mode, Rock Paper Scissors: Minus One, is for two players: you show both hands, pull one back, and the loser faces a revolver. Rotten Deck takes two to four players, an odd cast of characters sits at the table with you, and the developers plan more modes during Early Access, including one for up to 8 players.

Bogos Binted?
  • Price on Steam (US) $5.49
  • Players Up to 4 players online
  • Platforms PC
  • Released
  • Steam Deck Playable
  • Steam reviews Very Positive, 91%

Who it's for Four friends who like the bluffing but want it silly, not grim.

Bogos Binted? seats four aliens at a table on the Moon, and its bluffing mode is built on the same idea as Liar's Deck. Everyone plays cards face down that should match the table card, and anyone who smells a lie calls "beeble meep". If the call is right, the liar's head inflates. If it's wrong, the accuser's does, and an inflated head can explode.

There are three more modes: a card game about not going over a shared total, one where you must match or beat the last card, and a word game where one player, the VORP, doesn't know the secret word and has to fake a clue. It's for up to four players online. It left Early Access on January 28, 2026, although one heading on the store page still says Early Access.

DEAD MAN'S HAND: Card Roulette Action

DEAD MAN'S HAND: Card Roulette Action
  • Price on Steam (US) $4.99
  • Players 2 to 8 players online
  • Platforms PC, Linux
  • Released
  • Steam Deck Unknown (not tested yet)
  • Steam reviews Positive, 96%

Who it's for Bigger groups who want roulette with a hand of cards to play.

DEAD MAN'S HAND mixes Russian roulette with a card game in the back room of a frontier saloon. Each round everyone draws a card, then a random player becomes the Holder and can use the cards they've collected to bend the round their way.

The choices are simple and nasty: shoot yourself for an extra card, or aim at someone else and try to knock them out. Players who survive being targeted draw a card too. It takes 2 to 8 players online, in private lobbies or public matchmaking. It has only a few dozen Steam reviews so far, so it's a smaller pick than the rest.

Spider Roulette

Spider Roulette
  • Price on Steam (US) $4.99
  • Players 2 to 4 players online
  • Platforms PC
  • Released
  • Steam Deck Unsupported
  • Steam reviews Very Positive, 91%

Who it's for Friends who want a quick, tense game anyone can pick up right away.

Spider Roulette is the simplest game here. Everyone hides their spiders under cups, then you take turns flipping cups and try not to find anyone else's. The last player standing wins, and gets a room full of spiders for the trouble.

Like Liar's Bar, the fun is in second-guessing your friends, here about where they'd hide a spider. Action Packs can replace a cup flip and swing the odds either way. It's for 2 to 4 players online. Valve rates it Unsupported on Steam Deck.

Who it's for Bigger groups who want to lie out loud while they work.

LOCKDOWN Protocol takes the lying away from the table and into a first-person facility. Most players work together to finish tasks in time, while a few dissidents secretly try to stop them without getting caught.

It suits groups who loved Liar's Bar for the accusations as much as the cards. The store page sums it up as real-time action plus communication, so plan on voice chat. It supports up to 16 players.

Who it's for Friend groups who want bluffing played for laughs.

Dale & Dawson Stationery Supplies turns social deduction into an office comedy. Specialists do real work, Slackers goof off while pretending to be busy, and the Manager has to work out who to fire.

The bluffing happens in your voice and your behavior: the store page mentions proximity voice chat for alliances and accusations. It's lighter than Liar's Bar, with no guns, but the question in every round is the same one: who is lying to me?

Who it's for Groups that want a free way to play liar together.

Goose Goose Duck is a free social deduction game for up to 16 players. Geese finish tasks, report bodies and vote out the ducks, while ducks call sabotages and pick off the geese. A few roles belong to neither side and chase secret goals of their own.

It has proximity voice chat and cross-platform play with Mac, iOS and Android, so the whole group can join without buying anything. The lying is looser than Liar's Bar's card bluffs, but the accusations will feel familiar. Cosmetics are sold in the game.

For a group of four that wants the closest match, start with Only False or Buckshot Roulette. For a bigger group on voice chat, try LOCKDOWN Protocol, or Goose Goose Duck if nobody wants to pay.

Our list of games like Buckshot Roulette shares a few picks with this one and adds more two-player and couch options.
