Why Hive House Games
Set up in minutes
Pick a game and share a join code. No download for you or your players.
Automatic scoring
Every round scores itself, and ties are handled gracefully so nobody's left wondering who really won.
More than trivia
Quick-fire trivia, word scrambles, picture puzzles, and riddles. Mix them in one event or repeat a favorite, all from one join code.
You set the shape of the event
Ten questions or thirty. Twenty seconds or no clock at all. One round or five, mixing games or repeating a favorite. Build the event around your group, instead of squeezing your group into a game.
