A game by baræ

J’annonce !

The party game
where you back it up.

Make your bid. Back it up.

“I can name five.” “I’ve got six!”
Great. Now prove it.

A topic appears. Say out loud how many answers you can name. The last person to raise the bid takes the challenge, with the phone and timer keeping track.

The idea

How does it work?

The phone provides the topic. The conversation raises the stakes.

01Read

One question for everyone

Read the topic out loud: fruit, movies, things to pack for a vacation… Anyone can make a bid.

02Bid

Make your bids out loud

“I can name 5!” “I’ve got 6!” Once nobody raises the bid, enter just the final number on the phone.

03Deliver

The timer keeps you honest

Start the challenge. The group counts correct answers with the button, then confirms the result. You can then move on to the next challenge.

The rules and practical details for enjoying the game together.

How do you play J’annonce !?

A question appears and players bid out loud on how many answers they can name. When bidding stops, enter the final number. The person who made that bid must reach their target before time runs out. The group counts and approves the answers.

Do we need to register players or keep score?

No. This version does not ask for player counts, names or a turn order. There is no overall score: play as many challenges as you like with everyone around the phone.

How long does a challenge last?

Set the timer to 20, 30 or 45 seconds. Bidding and discussion take additional time. There is no fixed number of rounds.

Does the phone recognize spoken answers?

No. Answers are spoken out loud and counted using the correct-answer button. The group decides whether the target was met. The game does not use the microphone.

Are the questions about the Bible?

This version of J’annonce ! uses general topics: 120 questions across six categories. For a team-based Bible guessing game, discover REMEZ !

Is the game free with no download?

Yes. J’annonce ! is free to play in your browser, with no app-store installation. Open it with an internet connection and gather everyone in the same room.

Shall we get together?

Who gets
the last word?

One phone. Your group.
What happens next is up to you.
