Chat games

Chat-driven games rendered through a single unified Game widget. Viewers play by typing in chat — no install, no app, no overlay clutter.

Setup

Add the Game widget to OBS once. From your dashboard you start, stop, and switch between games — the widget renders whichever game is currently active. HypeVault enforces one active game per streamer; starting a new one cleanly stops the previous.

The games

Trivia

Multiple-choice (A/B/C/D) with elimination on a wrong answer. 146 questions across 12 categories. Category pill is shown live in the widget.

Hangman

Classic letter-guessing. Viewers type single letters in chat; correct guesses fill the word, wrong ones tick toward the hangman.

ChatWords (Paid tier)

Words-on-Stream-style anagram pool. Viewers find sub-anagrams of a letter pool; Scrabble-style letter scoring; per-slot padlock cooldown so spammers can't auto-fill. Bundled ~1,300-word dictionary, hidden + fake letter difficulty tiers, and level goal/star progression with auto-advance.

Feud (Paid tier)

Family Feud-style top answers game. Viewers shout out answers in chat and the closest match scores.

Crossword

Streamer-curated crossword. Chat works through the clues collaboratively.

Chattle Ship (Paid tier)

Coordinate-guessing battleship. Chat picks coordinates in shifts.

WordSearch

Grid-based word search. Chat calls out coordinates and directions to find the hidden words.

Slots

Loyalty-Gem-priced slot machine with a per-streamer progressive jackpot. Viewers spin via chat command, symbols roll for matches, the jackpot pot grows on every spin and pays out on triple-7s. Looser weights + payouts ship by default.

Draw & Guess (Paid tier)

Replicate-generated line-drawing reveal across an 8×8 tile grid. Chat guesses the word as tiles peel away.
