Which one suits you?
Corner Chaos
A quick three-lap kart race on the TV, steered by turning your phone sideways like a wheel. Items from boxes – boost, oil slick, shield – keep the drivers at the back in with a chance.
Pick Corner Chaos when things can get loud and fast and you’ve got a TV.
Letter Hunt
The classic word game without pen and paper: one letter, several categories, and whoever finishes first calls “Stop!”. You score together – dodgy answers can be challenged and the majority decides.
Pick Letter Hunt when you enjoy playing with words and don’t mind a friendly argument.
What they have in common
- Both work for 2–6 players.
- Both need a game table: Apple TV, iPad or Mac.
- Both come free with Gather and need no account.
