Play Spin & Solve on the Big Screen
Use Spin & Solve to turn any quiz into a game show. Residents play in teams, spin a big colourful wheel and call out letters to solve the hidden answer. If your residents love Wheel of Fortune, they'll feel right at home.
Start a Game
- Open any quiz or hangman game
- Click Play, then Spin & Solve
- Choose None to play as one group, or 2, 3 or 4 teams and give them names
- Click Let's play!
You'll find Spin & Solve on any game with short answers. That's over a thousand quizzes, so there's always a new puzzle to try.
How to Play
Spin, then call a consonant. The wheel lands on a points value. Every time the letter appears, the team scores those points.
Buy a vowel for 250. Vowels cost 250 of the team's points for that puzzle.
Solve to bank it. When a team knows the answer, click the team's solved it button. They bank their points for that puzzle (at least 1,000). Every other team loses what they earned on that puzzle, so don't wait too long!
Watch out for these wedges:
- Lose a Turn passes play to the next team
- Bankrupt wipes the team's points for that puzzle (their banked total is safe)
The wheel plays fair. It only lands on these when the team spinning has points on the puzzle, so a puzzle never starts with one and nobody goes bankrupt with nothing to lose. It never lands on them twice in a row either.
A letter that isn't there, or one that's already been called, also passes play to the next team.
Wrong guess at the answer? Click Not quite, next team and play moves on. Nobody loses any points. Use it too when all the consonants are found and a team can't afford a vowel.
Handy for Hosts
Press the space bar to spin, and type letters on your keyboard. Nobody can solve it? Show answer reveals it and moves on with no points banked.
Running out of time? You don't have to play every puzzle. Click End game between puzzles, then See the scores, to go straight to the final scores. You'll find it under Exit too. Points on a puzzle that isn't solved yet aren't banked.
Sound is on to start. Turn it off with the speaker button at the top.
Playing with one group instead of teams? Choose None next to Teams and everyone plays together.
