How to play

Most questions take a typed answer: send it in the chat, and the first right one wins the round.

• Capitals, accents and punctuation don't matter, and umlauts can be written either way: “Müller”, “Muller” and “Mueller” all count.
• A leading “the” is optional: “Beatles” answers “The Beatles”.
• Sentences count too: “I think it's Paris” answers “Paris”.
• Some questions ask for several things, such as both names of a duo. Then one message needs all of them, in any order.
• One answer per message: a message that lists other answers besides the right one, like “oxygen helium carbon”, doesn't count.

Every 10 seconds without a correct answer, a hint reveals some of the answer's letters, up to 3 hints.

A typed answer's points

In Casual nobody types: tap one of the answers shown. Everyone who's right scores, the faster the more.

Your first pick is final, and the round ends once everyone playing has picked. A question with several answers takes a pick for each. There are no hints.

A pick's points

In Casual some questions ask for a number: “How high is Mount Kilimanjaro?” Type your guess in the box under the question, as often as you like until the time is up: your last guess counts, and nobody sees it before the result. A number in the chat is a guess too, kept from the others, and so is anything after /answer.

The round always runs until its time is up. The hint says roughly how big the number is, the same for everyone, and costs nothing.

A guesstimate's points

In Chaos every question asks for a list of 5 to 10 answers: “Name the planets of the Solar System.” Every answer shows as blanks. Type them in the chat, one per message, each name in full: the first to name an answer gets it, and it shows in its place with their picture. Capitals, accents, punctuation and a leading “the” don't matter; “i think mars” and typos don't count.

Halfway through, a hint shows the first letters of each answer, and costs nothing. The round ends once every answer is named.

In Fix the Order every question asks you to put 4 to 6 items in order: “Put these mountains in order, highest first.” Casual asks some too. Drag the items into order, or tap one and then its place, and send it. Where the room has a chat, you can type their letters in your order instead, like B D A C, or after /answer: nobody else sees it.

One try every 3 seconds. After a wrong one you see how many items are in place, not which. The order as it was dealt and an order you tried before use no try.

An order question lasts at least 30 seconds, with no hints.

A right order's points

In Blurry Pictures every question is a picture, blurred at first: “What's this?”, “Which painting is this?” Type what it shows in the chat, like any answer: the first right one wins the round, and other names and spellings count too.

Every 6 seconds the picture gets clearer, 4 times, whatever the room's hints. Each clearer step is a hint: the sooner you know it, the more points. The sharp picture shows after the round, with its credit.

A blurred picture can't be described without giving it away, so these questions can't be played with a screen reader: what the picture shows is read out after the round.
