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.

Little Max

Roll, peek, announce – and feel free to lie. The next player believes you or calls your bluff, and whoever’s wrong loses a life. The dice live on your phone, so no cup and no cheating.

Pick Little Max when you’re a sociable bunch who likes putting on a poker face.

What they have in common

  • Both work for 2–6 players.
  • You can play both against the computer.
  • Both come free with Gather and need no account.
