How to play

Party mode (2–8 players)

1. On a big screen (TV browser, laptop or tablet), open PartyPad and press Host a party.
2. Each player scans the QR code with their phone camera, or opens the website and types the 4-letter room code.
3. Enter a name, pick an avatar and tap Join. The first player to join gets the 👑 and can pick and start games from their phone.
4. Your phone becomes the controller: a joystick and buttons for action games, or answer buttons for quizzes.

To finish, press ⏹ End party on the big screen (or just close it). Everyone's phone returns to the start screen.

Tip: Use full screen on the big screen (⛶ button) and turn up the volume. If someone leaves mid-game, a bot takes over so the match can finish.

Solo mode

Every game can be played alone against bots, on a computer or right on your phone. On a computer use the arrow keys or WASD to move, Space for the main button and K for the second button. On a phone, tap Play solo on any game: it goes full screen in landscape with an on-screen joystick and buttons.

The games

• 💥 Bumper Arena: steer with the joystick, tap DASH to ram. Stay on the shrinking platform. Last one standing wins the round; best of three.
• 🪖 Tank Battle: your tank turns toward the joystick. FIRE shoots shells that bounce off walls twice (watch out for your own!). Grab 🔱 triple shot, 🛡️ shield and ⚡ speed. Most kills in 2 minutes wins.
• 🔫 Blaster Arena: fast laser-blaster battle. You aim where you move (with aim assist), FIRE shoots, DASH dodges. Pick up 💥 shotgun, 🔫 rapid fire, ⚡ rail gun and ❤️ health. Most knockouts in 2 minutes wins.
• 🏎️ Street Racer, 🏍️ Moto Rush and 🚌 Bus Mayhem: point the joystick where you want to go and your vehicle steers there. BOOST for nitro. Cars are balanced, bikes are fast but light, buses are slow but heavy enough to bump everyone off the road.
• ⚽ Bumper Football: you are on team RED or BLUE. Tap KICK near the ball to blast it into the other team's goal. Most goals in 2 minutes wins.
• 🏃 Rooftop Run: everyone runs automatically across the rooftops. Tap JUMP to leap gaps and crates (tap again in the air for a double jump, hold for extra height). The city keeps speeding up. Last runner standing wins.
• 🏗️ Tower Stack: tap DROP to land the sliding block on your tower. Overhangs are chopped off; perfect drops keep it wide. Three misses and you're out. Tallest tower wins.
• 🎨 Draw & Guess (party, 2+ phones): take turns drawing a secret word on your phone while everyone else types guesses on theirs. Faster guesses score more, and the artist scores for every correct guess.
• 🃏 Fill the Blank (party, 2+ phones): a sentence with a blank appears. Play the funniest card from your hand, then vote for your favourite answer. +100 points per vote.
• 🎲 Ludo: tap ROLL on your phone, then pick a token. A 6 brings a token out and gives another roll; landing on an opponent sends them back to their yard (except on ⭐ safe squares). Exact roll needed to reach home. 2 players use 4 tokens each; 3–4 players use 2 tokens so the party stays quick.
• 🐅 Bagh-Chal: Nepal's traditional game for two. One side has 4 Tigers, the other 20 Goats. Goats are placed one at a time, then move along the lines. Tigers capture by jumping over a goat. Tigers win with 5 captures; Goats win by trapping every tiger. Play a friend or our AI.
• 🐍 Snake Royale: everyone shares one arena. Eat food for +1, earn +5 when another snake crashes into you. Most points in 90 seconds wins.
• 🧠 Quiz Rush: ten trivia questions about Nepal and the world. Tap the colour of the right answer on your phone; faster correct answers earn more points.

Trouble connecting?

• Make sure the room code matches the big screen.
• Keep the phone screen on during a game. If it locks, just reopen the page and you will rejoin.
• Phones do not need to be on the same Wi-Fi as the big screen, but it is fastest when they are.
