How to play
- Sit in a circle. On your turn, roll the on-screen die.
- 1 open a gift (or steal, once all are open), 2 steal any opened gift, 3 swap with your left, 4 swap with your right, 5 pass, 6 your choice.
- Each face is a 1 in 6 chance; the odds are shown on screen. The host can set custom faces.
- Play the number of rounds you agreed. Every gift ends up opened.
What the app does for you
The app draws the turn order, tracks who holds which gift and how many times each one has been stolen, and enforces the house rules you pick. Names can be changed and late arrivals added mid-game, and every move can be undone.
Play it on one device passed round the room, or have everyone join with their own phone using the code on the TV.
