How it works

Participants answer one prompt anonymously, then work through the private responses one at a time.

  1. Choose the question

    The host selects English or German, then picks a suggested question or writes a custom one.

  2. Answer privately

    Participants submit their answers privately. The host can extend the writing time and starts the reveal once at least three answers are ready.

  3. Read and vote

    Each answer is shown without its author’s identity. Eligible participants privately choose which teammate they think wrote it; the author does not vote on their own answer.

  4. Reveal the author

    The host reveals who wrote the answer. Correct and incorrect guesses are grouped, and the resulting points update the scores.

  5. Continue to final scores

    The host advances through every submitted answer before the final scoreboard is shown.
