A phones-as-controllers party game
Commit to the
Bit.
One screen sets the stage. Everyone plays from their own phone. No app to install, no account, no waiting — just a room full of people trying to make each other laugh.
The loop
Four moves, two minutes a turn
Hambone keeps the proven improv loop tight so the laughs never wait on setup.
Take the stage
The host opens a room on the big screen. Players join with a code or QR from any phone browser.
Draw the scene
An Actor gets a character and a question. The Director sets the tone. The room leans in.
Commit
Perform the bit out loud — no stakes but the room's. The wilder the commitment, the better.
Judge & rotate
The audience scores from their phones. Everyone takes the stage. Highest total closes the night.
Why it works
The players are the entertainment
Everything is built to get a group laughing fast and keep the turns moving.
