Games to Play on a Livestream

Last updated 7 November 2026

Invite viewers to a group room to play on their own devices. Room capacity by plan (host included): Free 8; Party Pass and Social 100; Host Pro 500. Venue supports 1000 and is coming soon. Game formats and recommended sizes vary. GroupGames does not connect to Twitch, YouTube, or stream chat; viewers outside the room can answer aloud or in chat.

Choose games where answers can be shown publicly. Keep secret-role games off stream: a shared screen can reveal private cards and spoil the round.

Play these

4 for this setting

Would You Rather?

Any audience size · About 10 minutes for four cards

Ask chat to pick a side, then use Group Voting on the shared screen. Read a few reasons aloud; the game's buttons do not send or collect chat votes.

Guess The Flag

Solo host with viewers guessing · About 6 minutes

Show an Easy flag question, pause for guesses in chat, then choose the answer on screen. Ten questions make a tidy segment.

Higher Lower

Solo host with viewers guessing · 5–10 minutes

Let viewers call higher or lower before the host taps. The screen reveals whether the chat's consensus was right.

Sketch & Guess

8 free or 100 in Social, including host; other viewers via chat · About 15 minutes for a few rounds

Create a group room and invite up to 8 people free or 100 in Social, including the host, to draw or guess on their devices. Other viewers can still guess in chat; chat is not connected automatically.

Leave these for another setting

Mafia

Publicly sharing the role-deal screen can expose hidden roles and ruin the round.

Impostor

Secret words are visible during pass-and-play. A public stream would give away the answer.

The Lying Game

The liar's private alibi is revealed on the shared device, so the stream can spoil the mystery.

Chain Story Chaos

Chat suggestions need active moderation, and the game has no built-in stream-chat connection.

A short stream segment

Open with four Would You Rather cards, then run one Flag or Christmas Quiz segment. Finish with Sketch & Guess: invite up to 8 people free or 100 in Social, including the host; other viewers can guess via chat, with chat scores kept separately.

Capture only the game window or browser tab, and hide notifications before you go live.

Pause after each question so viewers have time to type. Stream delay and chat speed can make a short timer feel rushed.

Set a simple chat rule, such as one guess per person, and choose a few answers to read rather than promising to count every message.
