Play JinxedA fresh puzzle is waiting for you.
Jinxed is a multiplayer party trivia game that runs in a browser or on phones and requires no download or sign-up. One player creates a room and shares a four-letter code for others to join. Games support up to 20 players and use short timed rounds where everyone answers the same prompt simultaneously.
Each round shows a prompt such as Name a fruit or Name a dog breed and gives players limited time to type as many answers as they can. Every answer is assigned a potion rarity: common answers create Murky potions worth 1,000 points while the rarest produce Primordial potions worth 8,000 points. If two or more players give the same answer they are jinxed and share that answer's points. The game offers themed packs from easy Classics to topics like Animals, Geography, Movies & TV, Music and Sports.
