Party game · Phones on the table
A party game played with everyone's phones lying face up on the table.
Every phone becomes one player's color. Then all of them together become the board.
Each phone turns into its player's color until the countdown flashes 3 · 2 · 1. From then on, the phones belong to nobody: together, they're the board. Colors pop up all over the table, and everyone reaches, races and bumps hands to find their own.
01 · How it works
Someone opens MESCLA and creates a room. Their phone becomes the host: it runs the game for everyone.
Everyone else types the 4-letter code or scans the QR. Each player gets a color and an icon.
Example room code: KQRW
The host picks a mode and starts. Every screen flashes 3 · 2 · 1, then goes black. Lay them all face up on the table. Play!
02 · Modes
Speed
See your color? Tap it.
Your color pops up on random halves of random phones. Tap it, wherever it is: every hit scores for that color's owner, so tapping someone else's only helps them. Colors stay up for less and less time as the 90 seconds run out.
Memory
Follow the path.
On your turn, your color hops from phone to phone, each playing its own note. Tap the same path back. Miss and you're out; every round gets one step longer and a little faster.
Co-op
Hold on. Together.
Press and hold your color until the ring around it closes. Soon colors show up twice, on different phones, and the whole table ends up holding with both hands and reaching across each other.
Head to head
Fastest tap wins.
A pause nobody can time, then two colors light up at once on two different phones. The faster tap takes the duel. The host checks when each phone saw its tap, so a slower connection doesn't lose a duel it won.
03 · Made for the table
Every color carries its own icon, so players who can't tell some hues apart can look for their icon instead. Hue is never the only cue.
No sign-up, no profile. Four letters and you're in.
The host's phone runs the game and the others connect straight to it.
Pace, team size, round length and more, set by the host before each match.
English, Portuguese, Spanish, German, Italian and French.
Every phone plays its part. Turn the volume up.
Every phone needs the app and an internet connection to find the others.
