Three ways to play

Shared-screen mode Available now

You run the game on one device — ideally connected to a TV or projector. Everyone plays together in the room. Nothing to install for guests.

Connected multiplayer Coming soon

Guests join on their own phones with a room code or QR link and a nickname. Needed for private Housie tickets, Secret Santa draws and online quizzes. The server will check every claim and score.

Display mode Coming soon

A read-only view for the projector that never shows private prompts, answers or host controls.

Honest game labels

  • Playable — the full game runs on this site and has been tested.
  • Guide only — rules and hosting tips; you run the game yourself.
  • Coming soon — planned, not available yet.
