Rhyma is now live on Google Play
Rhyma is now available to everyone on Android. Download the human-made collaborative poetry game from Google Play and add your first line.
Today the doors are properly open: Rhyma is now available to everyone on Android through Google Play.
We have spent a long time building, polishing, and testing this strange little poetry game, and we are delighted to finally share it with you. If you have an Android phone, you can download Rhyma today, write your first line, and send a poem on its journey around the world.
A poem nobody writes alone
Rhyma is a collaborative poetry game made entirely from human lines. You receive a poem in progress, but almost all of it stays hidden. You see only the line before yours and get about three minutes to add what comes next.
Then the poem moves to another person. And another. Nobody knows the whole thing until the final line lands and the complete poem opens for everyone who helped write it.
Sometimes it rhymes. Sometimes it changes mood halfway through. Sometimes it becomes glorious nonsense. That surprise is the point.
What is waiting inside
The public Android release includes the full Rhyma journey:
- add a line to poems travelling between people around the world;
- start your own poem in one of several supported languages;
- reveal completed poems and see the writers behind every line;
- follow each poem’s journey across cities and countries;
- react, comment, collect reward pins, and build your writing streak.
Every poem is written by people. Rhyma does not use AI to generate lines for you.
Made with care, shaped together
We worked carefully through every part of Rhyma, from the first hidden line to the moment a completed poem is revealed. Along the way, early players tested the experience, found the rough edges, and helped us make it clearer, steadier, and more joyful.
Thank you to everyone who wrote, tested, and sent thoughtful feedback. We are proud of what we made together — and very happy to welcome everyone in.
iPhone is next
We are already working on Rhyma for iOS. If you use an iPhone, join the App Store early-access list on the homepage and we will email you when it is ready.
For now, Android poets can download Rhyma free from Google Play. Write one line. Let strangers finish the poem. See what all of you made together.
If anything feels confusing or gets in the way, send it through our feedback form. We read every note.
