What is Bros & Cons?

It is a daily logic-puzzle game about truth-tellers and liars. Some characters (Bros) always tell the truth; others (Cons) always lie. You read their statements and deduce who is who. New to it? Start with our How to Play guide.

Is it free?

Yes. Bros & Cons is free to play, with no account needed. There is an optional Supporter version for players who want to remove ads and support development, but the daily puzzles are free for everyone.

What is a Bro and what is a Con?

A Bro always tells the truth: every statement they make is true. A Con always lies: every statement they make is false.

What happens if I get a puzzle wrong?

You get a fresh chance the next day, so there’s always a reason to come back and put your logic to the test again.

Do I need to create an account?

No. There is no sign-up and no login. Just open the game and play. Your progress is kept on your own device.

How do I install it to my home screen?

Bros & Cons is a web app, so you can add it to your home screen and launch it like a native app, with no app store needed.

Can I play offline?

Full offline play, where the game keeps running without a connection, is part of the Supporter version. Once you have it, Bros & Cons works even with no signal.

Which languages are supported?

We currently support English, German, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, and Turkish, with more languages to come. You can switch languages from within the game.

I’m stuck on a puzzle. What can I do?

Use the Get a hint button for a nudge toward the next deduction, or Reveal to see the solution, then tap Explain it for the reasoning behind it. Our How to Play page also explains the “assume, then check for a contradiction” method that solves every puzzle.

Does the game show ads?

The free version may show ads: optional rewarded ads you can choose to watch for an in-game benefit, plus occasional full-screen ads at natural breaks in play. The Supporter version removes those automatic full-screen ads and gives you a free hint on every level, a daily second guess, and unlimited rationales. Even as a Supporter, if you want extras beyond that (say a second hint on the same level) you can still choose to watch an optional rewarded ad.

What is the Supporter version?

It is an optional one-time purchase that removes ads and helps fund continued development. Payments are handled securely by our Merchant of Record; we never see or store your card details.

How is my data handled?

We use privacy-friendly analytics that do not track you across sites, and we ask for consent before setting non-essential advertising cookies where the law requires it. The full details are on our Legal & Privacy page.
