How a match runs
1
Pick a side
Viewers join a team by typing
!a or !b (or the team’s custom name).
In a cross-stream party, each streamer’s chat is a team automatically.2
Play the drawn game
Each round the launcher spins up a random mini-game from the eligible pool
and runs it for a minute or two. You play it exactly as you normally would.
3
Bank placement points
When the mini-game ends, everyone’s finish is scored into team points, and
the match rolls on to the next draw.
4
Crown the winners
After the last game, the team with the highest cumulative score takes the
match.
The round loop
Each round is the same shape: teams in place, a random game drawn, placement turned into points, and the totals carried forward — repeated for the length of the match.Every round: a random mini-game, scored by placement, tallied across the match
- Random draw, no repeats. Each round pulls a fresh game from the eligible pool; the wheel is paced so two slow games never run back to back.
- Short rounds. Every mini-game runs with a trimmed round count so it lands in the one-to-two-minute range and the match keeps rhythm.
- Placement scores. How you finish each mini-game — not the raw score — turns into team points (see Scoring).
Scoring
At the end of each mini-game, players are ranked by how they did, and the top finishers earn points for their team:- Points go to your team. Each teammate’s points add to the team total for that round.
- Ties share a rank. Players tied on a mini-game share the same placement, so a two-way tie for first both earn the first-place points.
- The match total decides it. Team points accumulate across every game; the higher total after the last round wins. If the two teams end level, both rosters are shipped as co-winners.
Party formats
Start Party
A local party on one stream. Your chat splits into two teams with
!a /
!b, and you can rename the sides so viewers rally behind !sharks vs
!jets. Prefer a solo scramble? Run it free-for-all — no teams, and the
individual with the most points wins.Host Party
A cross-stream party. One streamer hosts and another joins with an invite;
each streamer’s chat becomes a team, so it’s your room versus theirs. The
match waits for the challenger to connect before the first game starts.
Configuration
Length. How many mini-games make up the match.
Rounds per game. Auto uses a tuned round count per game to keep each one
short; you can also pin every game to a fixed number of rounds.
Team names. Local parties can name the two sides (cross-stream parties always
use Team A / Team B, since the teams are the two chats).
Game pool. Scope the draw to a handful of favourites, or leave it on the full
eligible set.
The game pool
The wheel draws from the round-based games whose finish order reads as a fair placement — most of the Trivia, Word, and Puzzle library. Games built around fixed roles (a hot seat or a 1v1 seat) or co-op gifting sit out, because there’s no head-to-head placement to score. The launcher’s setup picker shows exactly which games are in the pool.Related
