How the evening goes

The Warm-up for strangers plan is about 40 minutes: Team Quiz, Doodle Dash, a short Liar, Read My Mind and a short Riposta. No game needs you to know the rest of the group, and every one of them gets a laugh.

Family mode is on, so it suits school and work. A projector, a TV or a laptop on a big screen is enough; people join with their phones through the QR code, with no accounts and no app to install.
