Most JOKO games work from 3 players, many from two. For big groups, some games go up to 20. The right player count is on every game card.

Does everyone need their own device?

One device shows the game on the big screen – TV, laptop or tablet. Everyone else joins on their own phone. No one needs an app.

What does JOKO cost?

All 26 games and the complete Game Night are currently free. There are no purchases or activation codes.

Can you start with no prep?

Yes. Every game explains itself and walks you through each round. No rules to read, nothing to print.
