VIRTUAL GAME NIGHTS

Emceed by YDKML co-creator Dennis Hensley
It's like your own personal game show!
Here's what some past players have to say:
”What a fun, fun way to be with friends. So many giggles and discoveries!” - Susan Anton, Las Vegas, Nevada
"This is a perfect icebreaking activity for teams and businesses. What a great way to help teams become more cohesive. I'll definitely be sharing it with others." - Shannon Mastrangelo, Salesforce
"We did a Virtual Game Night for my birthday and it salvaged my birthday! Had such a great time! Laughed for two hours straight!" - Dave Watts, West Hollywood, CA
"Three generations, three locations, and two time zones - our extended family had a great time playing You Don't Know My Life, and even learned a few new things about each other!" - Madeline Jhawar, Menlo Park, CA

Here's how it works:
1) You set a date and time with us for the Virtual Game Night. We'll schedule a two-hour block...but the game will likely last about 90 minutes.
2) You invite people to play. The game works best with 6 to 12 players but we've made it work with 20. Players will need to be able to watch a screen as well as enter answers on their smartphone.
3) The day of the party, we'll email you a link to a Zoom meeting to pass on to all the players.
4) At the set start time, everyone clicks the link and joins the party.
5) Once everyone's convened, we'll explain the simple rules and dive right into the game, leading you through every step of the way, like a virtual Pat and Vanna.
FAQs
Does it work just like the boxed game?
Basically...with a few tweaks we've made to make it work online.
Is it hard to pick up?
Nope. The rules are super simple and we lead you through it.
What if I hate games?
People that hate games LOVE this game. There's nothing that you have to know but your life. No trivia, no hand-eye coordination, no math. Easy-peasy.
Can kids play?
Kids 10 and up are able to grasp the game mechanics...just let us know in advance so we can choose questions that are good for all ages.
How much does it cost?
During this uncertain time, we're offering a Pay-What-You-Can game fee with a $10 per person minimum suggested fee sent via Paypal or Venmo.
Is it gonna be fun?
You bet! We've done 6 people. We've done 20 people. We've had birthday parties, Happy Hours and Team Building groups from an office. Let us help you forget the outside world for a little while and make your gathering feel like a real occasion.

Step by Step Gameplay with Pictures:
STEP 1) Once everyone is gathered in a Zoom meeting, the game starts with a question being posed to the group:
STEP 2) Players enter their answers on our smartphone app then hit 'Submit':

|
3) As answers are submitted, they get randomized automatically and appear as gray boxes on the game board.
4) The answers are revealed one by one by the host and given hashtags so that they can be easily remembered and referred to.
STEP 5) Players take turns making guesses by saying the hashtag followed by the player they think wrote it. The winner is the player who gets the most guesses right.
