Playful decisions. Clear rules.
Choose an activity, prepare a list, and use Quick Play or one of 18 interactive games. The decision is generated independently of its animation. Replay, Skip, or switching game styles never draws a new outcome. Try Again does.
Random, without hidden weighting
Equal-probability draws use browser cryptographic randomness and rejection sampling; full orders use Fisher–Yates shuffling. A race, spin, drag, or box choice gives no advantage. No-repeat draws exclude used entries and automatically start a new cycle once everyone has been picked. Weighted choices are explicitly enabled, use positive integer weights, and show effective probabilities for eligible entries.
Balancing, with honest limits
Task-count balancing favors people with fewer assignments. It does not measure effort, workload, availability, or skill. Team skill balancing is a heuristic using user-supplied estimates. Team sizes differ by at most one. Together/apart restrictions are enforced; conflicts or a bounded-search limit produce an explanation instead of silently broken rules.
Turns and timers
Fixed Rotation follows the list. Shuffle Each Round chooses a complete new order each round. Random Without Repeats draws from people who have not gone in the current round. Skip consumes a turn; Undo restores the previous selection and timer snapshot. Timers do not automatically advance turns. Leaving gameplay pauses the timer. Saved timers resume paused at the time remaining when saved; time away is not counted.
Large groups and accessible play
Use up to 200 entries of 80 characters each. Duplicate names merge ignoring letter case, so give different people distinct labels. Large-list game visuals may show a sample, while the decision includes everyone. All drag controls also have buttons, sound is optional, and reduced-motion preferences are respected. Some games reveal one item at a time; Reveal All and Skip offer a faster path.
