How rooms work

Each game link opens one room: one team of up to 10 players. Your partner account lets you run a fixed number of rooms at the same time, and the console shows how many are in use. You can make as many sessions as you like, as long as you stay inside that number at any one time.

A room counts as in use for 3 hours after you make its link. After that it is free again, even if the team is still playing.
A link is valid for 1 day. Make the link on the day of the event, not before.
For a group of more than 10 people, make one link per team.

Make a game link

The host console: game tabs at the top, the Create codes panel on the left and the sessions list on the right — The host console. All names and codes in this guide are examples.

Click the tab of the game that you want to play.
In Label, enter the client and the time, for example Acme Corp, Friday 4pm. Only you see the label. It helps you find the session later.
In Codes, enter the number of teams. Each team gets its own link.
Leave Play window empty to use the game's normal length. Enter a number of minutes only if you want a different length.
Click Create code. The new code shows under Created.
Click copy link and send the link to the team. Players open it in a browser. They do not need an account or a download.

When all your rooms are in use, the console does not make a new link. It tells you when the next room is free. Wait until then, or contact us to add rooms.

When your partner account or trial ends, the console shows a notice and you can no longer make links.
