About

Chippyn

Features
Read full description

Chippyn is a real-time party game designed to play with a live audience; the kind of thing a speaker can pull up on a conference screen and get an entire room playing together in seconds. The rule is simple: pick the lowest number that nobody else picks. Whoever's hosting shares a 4-character round code, everyone in the crowd joins on their own phone, and each player spins the dial to lock in a guess anywhere from 1 to 999 before the clock runs out. Once the round locks, every pick is revealed together. The lowest number that only one person chose wins. It's part bluffing, part reading the room: too obvious a pick and someone else beats you to it; too clever and you might be the only one who wandered off the beaten path. Rounds move fast, with a live countdown through picking, locking, and results, so it's built for a quick, high-energy break between sessions, a shared moment for a room full of strangers, not just a two-player game.
