The holiday party game
nobody has to explain.

Half the room has met each other twice. Trivia works because everyone already knows the rules — guests scan a code, teams form themselves, and the screen carries the evening so you are not standing at the front explaining a game.

How the night runs

It fits around dinner rather than replacing it — run a round between courses and let the leaderboard do the rest.

Pick your rounds

Choose the categories and how long each question stays open. A few short rounds spread across the evening beats one long quiz that stops the party dead.

Guests scan a code

The QR code goes on the screen. No app, no download, no account — which matters when a third of the room is a plus-one who did not come to install anything.

Tables play as teams

Two to twelve teams. People pick their table as they join, and team scores sit alongside individual ones — so a table can win together without anyone giving up their own total.

It is not all Christmas

Which matters at a company party, where the safest assumption is that not everyone celebrates the same December.

The holiday category spans the year. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Día de los Muertos, Diwali, Hanukkah, Easter and St. Patrick’s Day all sit in it alongside Christmas — so a holiday round is not automatically a Christmas round.

Mix in a nostalgia round. Decade categories tend to do more work at a mixed-age party than anything seasonal: everyone has an opinion about the nineties, including the people who were not there.

Workplace-Safe, if it is a work party. One setting restricts the night to a hand-vetted allowlist of categories and tightens the name filter with it. How Workplace-Safe works →

Two kinds of holiday party

You are organizing one. An office party, a club dinner, a family get-together. Starter is free forever and covers one Game Night a week, which is one party. Set it up in about five minutes and nothing else is asked of you on the night.

You are hosting other people’s. Bars and restaurants take holiday bookings from September. A trivia night is something to sell into that booking — and on Pro you can run your own drinks and specials on the screen between rounds while it happens.

The one-party option. An Event Pass is $299 once and gives you everything Pro does for a seven-day window you start yourself — buy it in October, start it the week of the party. No subscription, so nothing to cancel in January. Three are $749 if December means three parties.

Either way, nobody pays to play. No per-player fees, no accounts, no upsells pointed at your guests.

Questions

How far ahead should we set it up?

Any time. Setup takes about five minutes and nothing expires, so doing it in October costs you nothing — and if you are a venue taking December bookings, having it ready is the point.

Can we keep it appropriate for a work party?

Yes — that is what Workplace-Safe mode is for. It restricts the night to a hand-vetted allowlist of categories rather than filtering question by question, and it tightens display and team names at the same time. It is available on every plan, free included.

What if people arrive late?

They join mid-game and start scoring from the next question. There is nothing to catch up on and nobody has to restart anything.

Do we need a TV?

It helps, but a laptop on a table or a projector works. The screen view is just another browser tab — anything that can open a web page can be the big screen.

Can we add our own round about the office?

Yes, on Pro. An Emcee round lets the host read their own questions aloud and judge answers by hand, which is how the “whose desk is this” round works. You can also import a written set as JSON.

What does it cost?

Starter is free forever and a single party fits inside it, with our name on the screen. To lose that and add your own branding, either an Event Pass at $299 once — seven days, starting whenever you say, no subscription — or Pro at $149/mo, cancelled after the party. Pro is cheaper; the pass is the one you cannot forget to cancel.
