About Kalima

Kalima (كلمة) is the Arabic word game you play together: a word guessing party with live voice. Open a room, call your friends in, and guess together out loud.

Live rooms with voice

  • Create a room or join one with a code, public or with a password
  • Talk while you play: take a mic, raise your hand, react with emojis
  • The host keeps order: open mics are capped, and the host can mute or remove anyone

Five room games

  • Race: same word for everyone, fastest wins
  • Co-op: one shared board, take turns typing
  • Team vs team: two sides, one board each, first to crack it wins
  • Knockout: the slowest player is out each round
  • Blitz: as many words as you can in three minutes

Magic cards

Freeze your rivals' keyboards ❄️, splash ink on their boards 🦑, peek at a letter 👁️ or raise a shield 🛡️.

Pick a subject

Animals, food, countries and places, jobs, sports, nature, the home, Ramadan, or write your own subject and words for your friends.

Crazy reactions

Rain hearts on everyone, drop a giant face or a phrase sticker, send a goat, rooster, cat, duck or cow with its real sound, or unleash the crazy donkey: it smacks every screen, brays in your face and storms off in a cloud. Nobody keeps a straight face.

Friends and chat

Find players by name or number, add friends, chat with them and invite them straight into your room. Notifications tell you when a friend asks, writes or calls you in.

Teams and challenges

Build a team with a code, earn points together and challenge other teams to a live team-vs-team match.

Ramadan fawazeer

Thirty riddles, one for every night of Ramadan: read the riddle, then find the word.

Solo when you want

Blitz against the clock, two words at once, four words at once, endless levels with stars, and a new word of the day for everyone.

How we made Kalima

Kalima is an Arabic word game designed and developed by ProVision in Flutter, built for Arabic from the first line: a real right-to-left keyboard, forgiving hamza and taa marbuta matching, and beautiful Arabic type.

Live rooms with voice, friends, chat, teams and challenges run on our own real-time backend, and our designers created the room games, magic cards and reactions to make playing together loud and fun.

We take mobile games from the first idea to the stores: game design and level design, UI and UX design, 2D and 3D art, animation and sound design, game programming in Flutter, Flame and Unity, online leaderboards and backends, Arabic and English localization, store listings, analytics and live updates.
