How the game works
- The host creates a room — the Christmas board is already selected. Everyone else joins from a phone or laptop with the link or the four-character code.
- One player picks a cell: a category and a value from 100 to 500. The higher the value, the harder the question.
- The question appears with four answer options. As soon as it has been read, the first player to hit the buzzer answers.
- Right answer: plus the value, and you choose the next cell. Wrong answer: minus the value, and the others get another go.
- When the board is empty, the final begins: everyone secretly bets part of their score on one last question.
One board takes about 15–20 minutes, so it fits neatly between dinner and dessert or into the last half hour of a work day.
Made for a mixed crowd
The questions cover traditions, Santa and his reindeer, Christmas around the world, festive food, and stories and music. The 100-point questions are ones a child can answer; the 500-point ones will make the family expert pause. The tone is family-friendly throughout, so the same board works for a school class, a family call with the grandparents and an office party.
- 2 to 12 players, each for themselves or in 2–4 teams. On a team anyone can buzz, which keeps quieter colleagues in the game.
- A big screen if you have one. Open playparty.live/tv on a smart TV or share a laptop: the board, the question and the scores go on the screen, the buzzers stay on the phones.
- A host who only hosts. Switch on “host only” and the organiser runs the show without playing.
- Your own questions. The board editor lets you add a round about your family or your team — who burned the turkey, who always wins the raffle.
For work, for Zoom, for the family table
For a remote team, share your screen with the board and let everyone buzz from their own phone — no slides to click through and no arguing about who shouted first: the server decides. For a family split across cities, the link is all anyone needs. And if you are all in one room, put the board on the TV and play in teams — kids against adults is the classic.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Christmas trivia game really free?
Yes. The board, the room and the big-screen mode are free. There is no account to create and nothing to download.
How many people can play?
From 2 to 12 players, plus an optional host who only runs the game. For bigger groups, play in up to four teams and let one phone per team hold the buzzer.
Are the questions multiple choice?
Yes. Every question has four options. The correct one is revealed only after someone answers or the time runs out.
Can we play on Zoom or Teams?
Yes. The host shares the board or the TV page, and each player uses their own phone as a buzzer by opening the room link.
Is it suitable for kids?
Yes. All questions are family-friendly, and the lower values are easy enough for primary-school children.
