## What is Game Jester?

Game Jester turns a pile of phones into a games night.

No internet, no accounts, no setup. Games connect phone-to-phone over Bluetooth, so they work in the garden, the car, the village hall — anywhere.

PROXIMITY DUELS (2 phones)
Stand back to back. Walk. Draw! Gunslinger is the wild-west showdown that started it all — and it's free. Then take on Perfect Circle, Perfect Square, Smooth Criminal and more head-to-head challenges.

TV MOTION GAMES (2-8 phones + a big screen)
One phone hosts on the TV, everyone else's phone becomes a motion controller. Frogger Live - jump for real to hop your frog home. River Rapids - paddle an actual rhythm, steer the rapids, dodge hippos. Pond Sprint - a rowing regatta for two-person crews. Tapthletics - the tap-racing track meet.

WHOLE-ROOM GAMES (up to 20 players)
Hot Potato with real passing, Freeze (the camera catches you moving!), Thumb Wars, Empire and a shelf of youth-group classics.

PARTY & FAMILY TOOLS
Musical Statues DJ, Pass the Parcel, Pirate Captain, Consequences, Counter-Action, car games for the motorway, and AI-voiced commentators for Connect 4 and Jenga.

HOW PRICING WORKS
Loads of it is free - including Gunslinger and joining ANY hosted game. When a friend hosts, you play along free, always. One-off packs (no subscriptions!) unlock hosting the full proximity collection, and the Family Pack shares with your household.

Grab some phones. Clear some furniture. Game Jester does the rest.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.7 — 2026-08-26

BASE WAR tuning from our family playtests: unlimited respawns (the enemy base is the prize — matches always run to a finish), rooms now hold up to 10 players, and every dogfight mode warns the host when the WiFi has split players across mesh nodes (with the one-tap hotspot fix).

### 1.0.6 — 2026-08-26

Bigger skies: Dogfight and Base War rooms now fit up to 10 players — the host plus nine wingmates, all in the same room on your own private connection.

Grab more phones, pick your team, and take the night.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-08-25

NEW GAME MODE: BASE WAR — a two-screen team siege! Shielded bases, glowing generators, bombers with torpedoes, AA guns that can slam the hatch, and three ways to win. Pick your role every time you respawn. Plus: faster cannons in every dogfight, drone swarms in Carrier Run, and a clearer team lobby with AI players to fill the seats.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-08-24

Faster, more reliable WiFi game finding: rooms now appear in seconds on iPhone (Bonjour discovery), and the app tells you when two phones are on different WiFi mesh nodes and what to do about it.

Dogfight: MISSILE TRUCK!!! balloon prize (infinite missiles until you're shot down), fireball missiles during the Witching Hour, nukes now show for everyone, stunt rings count reliably, and you must hover down into your base to land — drift into the side wall while hovering and you crash.

Gridlock: turn the board to see it fresh; completion line now 30%.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-22

NEW GAME: Gridlock! Trace words on a letter grid, race your family to claim them, and uncover the hidden phrase. A sneaky-fun way to build kids' vocabulary and spelling while you all play together — solo or over WiFi, with phrase categories or your own hidden message.

Big networking upgrades across all WiFi party games: rooms are found faster, connections heal themselves, and clear help appears if a phone needs a nudge.

Plus fixes and polish across the party.
