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.
Say It Different
Two teams, 60 seconds, one word after another – and the obvious words are off limits. A watcher from the other team sees the same card and hits “Forbidden!” the moment one slips out.
Pick Say It Different when there are four or more of you and it’s allowed to get loud.
What they have in common
- Both work for 4–6 players.
- Both need a game table: Apple TV, iPad or Mac.
- Both come free with Gather and need no account.
