MEAD GAMES
Party games to play with friends on a call
Games that run right inside a Mead Room, in the browser, with nothing to install. Whoever's in the call can play.
For ages 18 and up.
MeaDraw
One person draws, everyone else guesses in the match chat. Each round, someone else takes a turn, and the whole group laughs together on voice.
2 to 10 people · 90 seconds per drawing
The Impostor
Everyone gets a card with the same place, except the impostor. Questions happen over voice: the people who know the place try to prove it without giving too much away.
3 to 10 people · 5-, 8- or 10-minute rounds
Rune Word
Two teams compete over the same table of runes, each carved with a word. On each team, the rune master knows which runes are theirs and gives one clue at a time.
4 or more people, in two teams · as long as the group wants, with or without a timer
Tankard Slam
Mead's take on Stop, also known as Name, Place, Animal, Thing: a letter comes out, everyone writes a word starting with it for each category, and whoever fills them all slams the tankard. Then the table judges the answers out loud.
2 to 10 people · 3, 5 or 7 rounds, with 60 to 120 seconds to write
Twisted Tale
Telephone with drawings: everyone starts a tale with a sentence, and at each step the tales change hands. Get a sentence, draw it; get a drawing, write what you see.
3 to 10 people · 3 to 8 steps, from 20 seconds to 2 minutes each
Back Table
A card table inside the call, with Brazilian truco and Texas Hold'em poker. The chips are play money: each table starts with its own, nobody buys chips, and they're worth nothing outside the table.
2 to 8 people (truco takes 2, 4 or 6) · truco to 12 points; poker for 30, 45 or 60 minutes, or a tournament
