How it works
- The host creates a room with the “Christmas Hits” set and shares the link or QR code.
- Each round a short clip of a song plays. The clip gets longer if nobody recognises it.
- Players answer on their phones. The sooner you recognise the song, the more points you get.
- After the last song the game shows the final table — and usually someone demands a rematch.
The sound comes from the host’s device, so connect it to a speaker or the TV. On a video call, the host shares the tab with audio.
From crooners to pop
The set runs from the 1940s to today: the crooner classics that grandparents know, the big hits of the 80s and 90s and the newer pop songs kids ask for. That mix is the point — every generation gets its moment to be the first to shout the answer. The list below shows what is in the set; song lyrics are not shown anywhere in the game.
Good to know
- Music plays through embedded YouTube videos and short audio previews. If a video is unavailable in your country, the game switches to a preview or skips to the next track.
- Prefer bingo? The same set works in music bingo: everyone gets a card of songs and marks them as they play — see Christmas music bingo.
- You can also import your own YouTube playlist and play with your family’s favourites.
Round off the evening with a Christmas trivia game or a few rounds of drawing with the Christmas word list.
Frequently asked questions
Does the quiz have real sound?
Yes. Clips of the songs play on the host’s device. Players only need their phones to answer.
Is it free?
Yes. The Christmas set is free to play and needs no account.
Can we play on Zoom?
Yes. The host shares the browser tab with sound, and everyone answers from their own phone by opening the room link.
What if a song does not play in my country?
Some videos are restricted by region. The game then uses a short audio preview where one exists, or moves on to the next track.
Can I use my own playlist?
Yes. The host can import a YouTube playlist and run the same quiz with their own songs.
