FAQ
Family quiz: frequently asked questions
Will older guests keep up?
Yes. They tap one of four big buttons. You set the answer time for the game (10 to 120 seconds) and can switch off the speed bonus, so careful thinkers are not punished.
Is there a Family-Feud-style game too?
Yes. The survey board game pits two teams against each other on the most popular answers, and guests' phones work as buzzers for the face-off. Starter boards are ready to edit.
Can family or colleagues join remotely?
Yes. Share the room screen in your video call and send the game code — everyone answers on their own phone, wherever they are.
How many people can play?
Up to 16 players on the free plan — enough for most family lunches. For a big reunion, Party Pass ($19.99 one-off, 72 hours) removes the limit.
