Frequently Asked Questions
If your question isn't answered here, the fastest way is to just open the game and try it — no sign-up needed.
Is Knowigo free?
Yes, the game is free. You can type a name, join as a guest and start playing without creating an account.
How many people can play?
A room holds 2 to 6 players. Bluff mode needs at least 3, because with 2 players the real answer becomes obvious.
Do I need an account?
No. Type a username on the home page and start playing right away. Creating an account is optional.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Knowigo runs in the browser and works on phones, tablets and computers with nothing to install.
Do we have to be in the same room?
No. Everyone connects from their own device, so you can play remotely. Just share the room code.
Do the questions come ready-made?
No, and that's the best part: the players write the questions. Because they're made for your group, every game turns out completely different.
How many game modes are there?
Five: Classic, Hidden, Penalty, Bluff and Betting. They share the same core flow but change the scoring and privacy rules.
How long does a game take?
It depends on the question count; a typical game runs 10-15 minutes. When you create a room you choose the number of questions and the time per question (25/45/60s).
What happens if I lose connection mid-game?
Refresh the page and you'll return to where you left off. If the host leaves, hosting automatically passes to another player.
