How to play guess the song on the TV
- Open roomful.hatcherylake.com/host on the TV or a laptop with its sound on. The button above opens it with Guess the Song picked. For carols, pick Holidays in the lobby.
- Everyone joins from their own phone with the four-letter code on the screen, picks an animal and can add their name.
- Each round, the big screen plays a few notes and shows four titles. Everyone taps one on their phone before the 20-second clock runs out. Press Play it again to hear the notes once more.
A right answer is 2 points, and the fastest right answer gets 3, so it pays to know it from the first bar. The reveal lights the right title and shows who picked what. Party Mix puts a song round between the other games.
