How to play

  • The host reads a question with a number answer.
  • Type your best guess on your phone and lock it in — "1,250", "3.5" or "2k" all work.
  • Closest guess scores the most, 2nd and 3rd score too. Nail it exactly for a bonus!
  • Price is Right rule (if the host turns it on): go over and you score nothing.
  • Team vote: everyone on the team guesses; the team plays the middle (median) guess.
