Chat games

Chat-driven games that turn passive viewers into participants. Most run inside the unified Game widget; persistent worlds (HypePets, HypeFish) get their own widgets so they can live on screen all stream.

Setup

Add the Game widget to OBS once. From your dashboard you start, stop, and switch between standard chat games — the widget renders whichever game is currently active. Only one standard game runs at a time. The persistent games (HypePets, HypeFish) each get their own browser source and run independently in their own corner of the screen.

Persistent "always on" games

HypePets

Account-global creature collection. Wild HypePets wander through your stream; viewers !attack to weaken them, then race to !catch when they're downed (60-second catch window, only attackers can catch). Train pets, send them foraging, set traps, battle other viewers, and evolve them through five stages. Pets, gems, items, and the leaderboard are all global to the viewer's HypeVault account — collections follow them across every streamer who runs HypePets. 305-species bank across 41 evolution families + 100 standalones. Includes fullscreen widget with attacker marquee, pinata loot rains, "Who's That HypePet" mini-game, and Investment / Forging quest tracks. Configure spawn rates, ban/allow species, and reward tuning from Dashboard → HypePets Studio.

HypeFish

Idle fishing minigame. Viewers !cast to join a queue; the rod cycles through cast → wait → bite → reveal phases and pulls from a 32-item bank with rarity tiers. Catches pay out gems on reveal and stack into the viewer's collection log. Fullscreen widget docks a reveal card at the water line so it doesn't fight your camera.

Standard chat games

Family Feud (Paid tier)

Survey-style top-answers game. Surveys are AI-generated per round with per-answer synonym categories so any in-category guess hits ("damn" / "fuck" / "shit" all count when "cuss" is on the board). Per-viewer 3-strike lockout, animated red-X strike stamp, and a "SURVEY SAYS!" intro flourish. Bot replies in chat on every guess.

Trivia

Multiple-choice (A/B/C/D) with optional elimination on a wrong answer. Questions are AI-generated in batches across 15+ categories (Geography, History, Science, Movies, Music, Gaming, Tech, Literature, Animals, Food, Mythology, Pop Culture, Art, Languages, Brands). Per-question category + difficulty pills, viewer streaks, red-X wrong stamp, TIME'S UP timeout stamp.

Hangman

Classic letter-guessing with a 250-entry curated bank across 13 categories (Animals, Foods, Movies, Songs, Video Games, Places, Sports, Phrases, Common Words, Streamer Life, Famous People, Mythology, Tech). Streamer picks enabled categories + difficulty (mixed / easy / medium / hard) and can supply custom word | hint | category | difficulty entries via textarea. Hint reveals after a configurable wrong-guess threshold.

Chat Words (Paid tier)

Words-on-Stream-style anagram pool with a 115k-word English dictionary. Viewers find sub-anagrams of a letter pool; Scrabble-style scoring; per-slot padlock cooldown so spammers can't auto-fill. Curated base bank picks shorter bases at low levels and 7-letter bases at high levels. First-letter peek on remaining slots once N sections roll. Level goal / star progression with auto-advance.

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 hidden words.

Slots

Loyalty-Gem-priced slot machine with a per-streamer progressive jackpot. Viewers spin via chat command; the jackpot pot grows on every spin and pays out on triple-7s.

Draw & Guess (Paid tier)

Replicate-generated line-drawing reveal across an 8×8 tile grid. Chat guesses the word as tiles peel away. Word bank is cached after first generation, so repeat rounds are free.

Chaos Scramble

Word-scramble race. The engine pushes unscrambled answers as viewers solve them. Per-word gem payouts are routed through the unified gem economy.

Emoji Decoder

Emoji puzzle game. Chat decodes rebus-style emoji strings into the target phrase.

Hype Deal

Deal-or-no-deal style elimination. Multi-participant flow with per-participant gem awards carried through the snapshot field so the widget shows actually-paid amounts.

Hype Million

Millionaire-style ladder game with chat-pooled lifelines.

Paid-tier games

Gem rewards

All in-game gem payouts route through the unified gem economy (Dashboard → Gem Economy). Each game has a single economy weight slider (0–500%) that multiplies the global baseline. Per-viewer + per-streamer hourly / daily caps are enforced platform-wide so a runaway game can't empty your gem budget. Set chat-message / follow / raid / time-watched rewards in the same place.

Bot replies

Feud, Trivia, Hangman, and Chat Words talk back in chat on every guess (✅ / ❌ / ⚠️ / 🏆) on the source platform (Twitch, YouTube, or Kick). Other games stay overlay-only.

Testing

Each game has a Test button on the Games dashboard that injects fake chat messages so you can see the flow before going live. Feud / Trivia have a Preview button that samples a round without starting one.
