The games everyone already plays, on the big screen

Guess & Gather is a web app for the games people play at bridal showers, baby showers, bachelorettes, rehearsal dinners and wedding receptions. The questions show on a TV or laptop, guests answer from their own phones, and the host runs everything from theirs. The screen reveals each answer and keeps the score.

The games

How well do you know them, The shoe game, Guess the number, Price guess, Ladder climb, Shower bingo, Predictions and bets, Live photo wall. The library has 31 ready-made question sets, each with a free printable PDF for anyone who would rather play on paper. Browse the games.

How it works

• The host plans an event: the occasion, the names, the games and a theme.
• The guest of honor can answer privately through their own link, the host can type the answers in, or tap them in live during the game.
• Guests join by scanning a QR code. No app and no account: just a display name.
• When the host closes a round, the server locks the answers, so a late phone can’t change a pick after the reveal. The first bingo is decided the same way.

What it costs

Every game is free for up to 15 guests, with teams, unlimited co-hosts and play with or without a screen. A one-time Event Pass adds unlimited guests, photos, your own colours and fonts, and a keepsake page. There are no subscriptions. See pricing.

How it’s made

The sounds are synthesized and the artwork is drawn in code, so there’s no licensed music or stock art. Guests give a display name and nothing else, and photos a host uploads are private to the event and deleted with it. See the privacy page.
