Read the question.
Each round puts a friend at the center of a question. Think “Who would Alex call at 3AM?” or “Who would Alex take on a road trip?”
01 / The voting game
READ
THE ROOM.
One question.
A roomful of opinions.
You think you know what they’ll say. That’s the fun part.
One question about a friend. Everyone quietly picks the person who fits. The votes appear together, turning all those little opinions into a very public conversation—inside your Night.

A little less explaining. A little more playing.
How to play Read the Room.
Make your pick.
Choose the friend who fits the question. The group’s picks stay out of the shared reveal until it is time for the answers to land.
Let the room speak.
The votes appear together. Compare what you expected with what your friends actually chose. The explanation is yours to give.
Part of the Night, not a fixed playlist. NIGHTMADE mixes suitable games automatically for your group.

Before your first round
Good
questions.
Glad you asked.
How many people can play?
Read the Room needs at least two players. More friends bring more opinions, but you don’t need a large group to get started.
Do we need to share photos or use the microphone?
No. Read the Room works through questions and player selections. It doesn’t require a photo pool or microphone permission.
What kind of questions come up?
Questions are about your group’s relationships: who someone would call late at night, trust with their phone or bring on a road trip. They invite conversation rather than having an objectively correct answer.
Are the results facts about my friends?
No. They are the group’s choices in a party game. Keep it playful, respect people’s boundaries and don’t treat a result as a judgment about someone.
