Shared Board
Shared Board puts everyone on one live answer board. Correct answers keep control; a miss passes play to the next player or team. Play locally or host a match for two to eight online players.

How Shared Board works
Clear rules, natural answers, and a reveal that keeps every player in the round.
Find a board answer
A correct answer reveals its position and lets the active player continue.
Choose your rules
Online hosts choose standard scoring, no-penalty play, or three strikes per player. A miss passes control; a repeated answer is neutral.
Build your match total
Claim answers before time runs out. Online scores carry across one to ten questions, with a fresh shared board each time.
Bring the whole group
Host two to eight players on separate devices. Play individually, split into two teams or four teams of two, or work together. Each incoming player gets a clear handoff and a timed turn.
Say it the way that makes sense
An answer can be one word, two words, or longer. Guess Jam recognizes common natural variations without requiring filler words.
Keep the room playing
Change the pace without changing the people.
Name Something
Name Something is the longer, turn-based Guess Jam format. Each prompt hides a deep ranked board, rewarding players who can keep thinking beyond the most obvious first answer.
Score Battle
Score Battle brings two to eight players into one room to race for the highest total. Play individually or in teams, choose the match length and rules, and follow the action on an optional TV.
Put the shared board on your TV
Open the TV display and enter the room code. The TV shows the question, claimed answers, whose turn it is, named teams, and the match totals.
Players answer on their own devices. Room options can turn off player microphones and keep the question on the TV. When a TV is connected, it becomes the room’s sound source for narration, answer feedback, and the final countdown.
