How To Play
Setup
Step 1: Select virtual streaming platform and invite your friends: Zoom, Google Hangouts, Skype, FaceTime, Join.me, (and others) all work well.Step 2: The host starts a game, entering their name and clicking 'Start a New Game' on our homepage. The host should then share the 'game code' or game URL (click Copy Game URL) with all other players. This can be done via your mobile phone, tablet or computer. A laptop or computer should be used to share the full sized game board with the other users on the virtual meeting platform. Only one user needs to do this.
Step 3: All players can then join the game by using the 'game code' and inserting their player name on our homepage or directly on the game page with the provided URL by the host.
Step 4: Once all players have joined the game, you are ready to go! The host should then share their screen on your streaming platform of choice so other players can follow along the full sized game board. All other players can follow along on their mobile phone, tablet or computer as well.
Final Step: Click 'start game', and have fun! The host has additional options to Pause Game, Skip a Turn, End Game, or Remove a Player. Each player has options to the right of their name (either on mouse over or click) to copy that player's URL in case they get disconnected or want to change devices and an option for the host to remove the player.
