HOW TO PLAY!

Getting Started

On the main menu select Play.
Now select how you want to connect. You can host your own game (you pick the game mode and settings), find a game, or join an existing game (using a room code).
If you're looking to host a game, select your desired game mode and choose your game's visibility. You can set your game as public (anyone can join), private (only people who have your room code can join) or local (no remote connections are allowed). Choose your game settings and select start game!
Once you're connected, head to http://rifftrax.games/ on any internet connected device (your phone, a laptop, ipad, etc)
On the website, enter your name and the room code you see on your PC/Mac.
You can play single player, two players (with a computer controlled bot), or 3-6 players (bot is optional).
Once everyone has connected and logged in, have the host select Start Game.
To play the game you enter text on the website and watch the clips playback on your PC/Mac.

How to Join a Private Game

To join a game you need a copy of the game* and a room code. A room code can be provided by a friend or streamers.
Once you have their code, select Play on the main menu. Select Join. Enter the room code then select Join Game.
Wait a moment and you will be connected. If you have a mic connected voice chat will start.
On any internet connected device (your phone, a laptop, ipad, etc) head to http://rifftrax.games/
On the website, enter your name and the room code you see on your PC/Mac.
To play the game you enter text on the website and watch the clips playback on your PC/Mac.
You can adjust voice chat settings by pressing pause and selecting Voice Chat.
* If you want to join a remote game without purchasing the game, ask the host to share their game screen via Zoom, Discord, or Steam. As long as you can see their screen, you're good to go!
