How the live game works

From creating the game to the results: what the players do and what the viewers do.

  1. Create a live game

    When you create a game, turn on Live game in the advanced options. In the lobby you then see a special link for viewers and a QR code you can show on a projector or send to your viewers.

  2. Who can watch

    Anybody with the link or the QR code, with no registration and no app to install. Next to every player you see an eye with the number of people currently watching them.

  3. Viewers follow what is being written

    A viewer chooses a player to watch and sees what they write. They can support the player with a reaction.

  4. Voting on words

    For every word, a viewer switches whether it is valid in their opinion. Players see the sum of the votes of all viewers next to each word, and viewers' votes are counted together with the players' votes, so they decide on the validity of words together.

  5. Reactions

    Viewers can add reactions to words: heart, laugh, thumbs up, anger, surprise. Players see them next to their words and next to their name in the results.

  6. At the end of the game

    Viewers vote on the categories of the next game too. The game manager sees the votes of the players and of the viewers separately and together.

How to set up a game for a stream

Only one setting is required, the others are useful when you want the broadcast to keep its pace. You find them in the advanced options when creating a game.

Live game

The basic setting. Viewers get their own link and QR code, players join as usual.

Setting: Live game Setting: Live game
Setting: Live game

Time to confirm the words

After a round the words are voted on. A time limit makes sure the stream doesn't wait for players or viewers who don't vote.

Fixed time for writing words

The round ends when the time limit runs out, not only with the STOP button. The broadcast has a predictable pace.

Frequently asked questions

How many viewers can the game handle?

We limit the number of viewers for now, in one game and on one game server. The feature is new, so the limits are lower. If we see they are too low or too high, we will adjust them according to demand.

Do viewers need an account?

No. A link or a QR code is enough, viewers join from a phone with no registration.

Do viewers decide on the words?

Viewers' votes are counted together with the players' votes. If the game is run by a game manager, the viewers' votes are advisory and the manager decides.

How do I use it on a stream?

Show the QR code or paste the link for viewers into the chat. Players play on the screen and viewers vote on their phones.

How do I turn on the live game?

In the advanced options when creating a game (the option is called Live game).
