Meet Mäxle!

Only took me one and a half decades from notion of having an app on the App Store to … actually having an app on the App Store 😀

I was always curious how it feels to be able to code, since I was a child. Couple of years later, I finally decided to greatefully use the incredible ressources provided by apple and all the nice folks of the internet and try to learn SwiftUI. So here we go…

2-1 is Mäxle. The highest value in the game.
You can't outbid it. You can only challenge it. And if you're wrong — you lose two lives.
It changes everything about that moment. Do you believe them? Nobody rolls Mäxle that often.
Except when they do. And you didn't challenge it.
There's a cup.
It slides down to hide the dice when you pass the phone. If the next player doesn't believe you, they tap Challenge — and the cup lifts automatically to reveal the truth.
A small thing. But it's the moment. The tension before that tap.
It's a separate boolean, decoupled from the game phase — so the animation plays independently of what the game is doing.
How Mäxle works:
Roll two dice secretly, peek, then announce a value ≥ the last — or lie. Next player: believe it and roll themselves, or challenge.
Wrong challenge → lose 1 life.
Bluff caught → they lose 1 life.
Roll 2-1 (Mäxle) and it gets doubted? Doubter loses 2 lives.
Simple rules. Total chaos.
Ich baue gerade ein Spiel.
Es heißt Mäxle — das gute alte Würfelbluffspiel. Lügen, erwischt werden, Leben verlieren und trotzdem Spaß haben.
Kommt aufs iPhone. Pass-and-play, bis zu 6 Spieler∗innen. Kein Account. Kein WLAN. Nur Würfel, ein Becher und jemand mit schlechtem Pokerface.

I've been building a game.
It's called Mäxle — a southern German dice bluffing game where you lie to your friends, get caught, lose lives, and somehow still have fun.
Coming to iPhone soon. Pass-and-play, up to 6 players. No accounts. No WiFi. Just dice, a cup, and someone who can't keep a straight face.
