Buzzin: TV Party Game Show

New minigame: Sort it out. The game show runs on your TV, everyone plays with their phone, and guests join with a code, nothing to install.

Turn on the TV, everyone grabs a phone, and about three minutes later your living room is a game show.

Buzzin turns your TV into a trivia game show and every phone in the room into a buzzer. Nobody installs anything and nobody makes an account: your guests type a room code in their browser and they are in.

HOW A NIGHT GOES One person opens Buzzin on the TV, or casts it from this app. Everyone else joins with the room code. A real voice reads the question out loud, you answer on your phone, and the faster you get it right, the more it is worth.

Between questions a second game starts. You can send a trick to whoever is running away with it: freeze their screen, fog up their answers, or let bugs crawl across them. The TV keeps score, runs the final round and announces the winner, so nobody is doing math on a napkin.

WHAT IT IS FOR House parties, family game night, team icebreakers at the office, and every evening that stalls on "so what do we play?". Two to eight players around one screen.

WHAT YOU GET

• Question decks written by people, not run through a translator
• A host with a real voice who keeps the pace up
• No extra controllers and no app for your guests
• A party game for your TV: smart TV browser, a laptop plugged into the TV, or Chromecast
• New games arriving over time, because Buzzin is a platform, not a single game

You can put the remote down. Your phone just became one.
