Games to play with friends: one for the group chat, a Discord night, a class or a party

Updated

Teleplay makes a game for your group from one sentence, and friends join it by link in the browser: 2–4 players a room, nothing to download, and no account needed to join. Here are four occasions people make one for, each with games made for friends on Teleplay that you can open now. Multiplayer is in beta: games are 2D and joined by link or room code.

Make one for your group

Four occasions, with games to open

A friend group

Describe the joke your group keeps telling, a rivalry or a place you all know, with With friends chosen on Create. When the game is ready, start a room and drop the link in the group chat: whoever opens it lands in the lobby, and the host starts the round when everyone is ready.

A Discord night

There is no Teleplay bot or Discord app: the room's link is all it takes. Post it in a channel, friends open it in their browser and play while you talk in voice. A room holds 4 players; the next group starts a room of its own.

A class

Teleplay is for people 13 and older, so this is for classes of students that age. The teacher signs in, makes a game about the lesson and starts a room; students join on their own devices by link or the 6-character room code, with no accounts. A room holds 4 players, so a bigger class plays in groups, each in its own room.

A party

Before the guests arrive, make a game about the person whose day it is, their pet or their favorite food. Then everyone opens the link on their phone: games made with the code engine draw their own touch controls. When a round ends, the host starts a rematch in the same room.

How it works

Every occasion goes the same way: make the game, start a room, send the link.

The steps, and how a room works
