Features
Read full description

It is a group lottery using cards. A set number of cards are placed in a deck, and groups are created depending on the cards drawn. The maximum number of people is 26 and the maximum number of groups is 26. How to use: Start grouping by setting the number of people and the number of groups. Participants draw cards one by one, and the displayed pattern becomes the assigned group name. You can repeat the lottery by resetting the settings. Card type: Alphabet--26 alphabets are used as group names. Animal--26 types of animal cards are used as group names. Random settings: If it is OFF, the group name will be used from the first of the 26 types. If there are three groups in the alphabet, A, B, and C are used. When ON, 26 types are used randomly. If there are 3 groups in the alphabet, any 3 from A to Z will be used. At times like this: You can use it when you want to add a game element and randomly decide when dividing multiple people into groups or teams. How about when you want to group them smartly without using rock-paper-scissors or other props? please note: If you change the number of people or groups, it will be treated as a reset.
