Guides for streamers

Everything you need to run chat games on your stream, written for people who'd rather be live than read a manual. Start with the setup guide, then read up on the games you plan to use.

Getting started

Add chat games to OBS takes you through sign-in, your overlay address and the browser source in about two minutes.

Troubleshooting covers what to check when the overlay doesn't show or chat gets no reaction.

The games

Parachute Drop explains the commands, how landings are scored, queue mode for busy chats and the leaderboards.

Plinko explains how viewers choose their Arcade Points, what the multipliers do and how results stay fair.

Roulette explains the six lamps, the short timeout, who's protected from it and how to keep the game under control.

Points and rewards

Arcade Points explains how viewers earn and spend points, how the jackpot works and how points differ from scores and coins.

Growing your chat

Getting a quiet chat talking has practical ideas for small streams: when to run a game, how to introduce it and which mistakes to avoid.

By platform

Chat games for Kick and chat games for Twitch show how setup works on each platform.
