The Ultimate Bounty Platform
Most Wanted is a fun, competitive social app where you and your friends can place “bounties” on one another (in good spirit), nominate targets, and see who climbs the leaderboard.
Think of it as a playful way to settle scores, spar in jest, or just push your squad’s competitive edge.
Key features include:
- Private Rooms – Only those you invite (via code) can join your bounty game.
- Unlimited Targets – Nominate anyone — friends, foes, co-workers — the more creative, the better.
- Live Leaderboards – Watch rankings update in real time as bounties change and climbs happen.
- Stackable Bounties – Multiple people can pile on points or “votes” toward a target.
Getting started is quick — here’s the flow:
- Create a Room
Spin up a private room with a coded invite. Share with your group. - Nominate Targets
Add your victims (I mean, friends) to the bounty board. - Place Bounties / Votes
Cast votes, stack points, and watch as targets rise up in the “Most Wanted” ranks.
Note: This is a Next.js app generated via create-next-app.
You’ll want Node.js and either npm / yarn / pnpm installed.
