Take me there: Browse Games

Your first job is to pick a game. The Browse Games shows every game you can host, with a short description of each. Everything in it is included in your plan.

#Browse the Game Library

  1. In the sidebar, choose Browse Games. (It is also the first page you see after you create your account.)

    You will see the games grouped under category headings such as Arcade and Trivia Nights. Each game has its picture, name, description, and buttons.

    Two games in the Game Library, Trivia Night Player and Bar Trivia, each with Host a Game Now, Build a Trivia Set and Learn More buttons.
    Each game has its own card. Choose Learn More to read about it, or Host a Game Now to start it.
  2. Read the description on each card. Games that work with the trivia builder are marked Works with trivia builder and have a Build a Trivia Set button.

    You can quickly see what each game is for.

  3. Choose Learn More on a game that interests you.

    The game's page opens with its full description, demo videos, and how many times it has been played.
