Guesstimator
Everyone guesses on their phone. Closest wins.
What is Guesstimator?
Guesstimator puts a 'how many / how much / how far' question on the big screen and lets everyone lock in an answer from their phone. When the real number is revealed, the closest guess wins.
It's a brilliant icebreaker and team game because there's no trivia knowledge required — just gut instinct — so everyone has a genuine shot regardless of the topic.
How to play Guesstimator
- Players join the room from their phones.
- A guessing question appears on the screen.
- Closest guess to the real answer wins the round.
