Everything you need to start a game with up to seven people around one keyboard.
Quick start
- Open the game and tap the colours that are playing. At least two players are needed and up to seven can join.
- Press Next to see the ten mini-games. Choose one, or press Play and a random game starts.
- Every player holds or taps their own key. Each game explains its controls before it starts.
- The winner of each mini-game earns a heart. After a few rounds, press ← Players to see who is the champion.
Which key does each player use?
| Player | Key | Where to find it |
|---|---|---|
| Red | C | Letter C |

| Green | P | Letter P |
| Yellow | Q | Letter Q |
| Orange | ← | Left arrow |
| Purple | → | Right arrow |
| Pink | 0 | Numpad 0 |
Setup tips
- Click inside the game once so the browser sends your key presses to it.
- Laptop without a numeric keypad? Pink uses Numpad 0, so use six players, or plug in an external full-size keyboard.
- Some keys not responding? Keyboards can only register a limited number of simultaneous presses. See our keyboard ghosting guide.
- Playing on a TV? Follow our TV setup guide.
- Use a desktop browser. Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on a computer give the best experience.
Common questions
Why do some players’ keys stop working when many people press at once?
Keyboards can only detect a limited number of simultaneous key presses, and some combinations are blocked by the hardware. This is called ghosting. Read our guide on keyboard ghosting for fixes.
Do I need to click on the game before playing?
Yes. Click inside the game once so the browser sends your key presses to the game and not to another page or app.
How do I turn the music off?
Use the Music button in the top right corner of the menu. Each game also has its own Sound button.
How does scoring work?
The winner of every mini-game earns a heart. When you are done, press the Players button and the player with the most hearts is crowned champion.
