Video Call Options:

Online Games:
Our team recommends Quiplash to play in groups – but do yourself a favor and spring for The Jackbox Party Pack! It’s even on sale right now.
Who doesn’t love Catan? Rachel Anderson, our Director of Content Marketing, played earlier this week with some friends and Chromecast from her phone to her television so she could maintain a video chat from the computer with others. It worked great! Pro Tip: invest in a Chromecast option if you haven’t already.
Looks like with QuizWitz you can play up to 6 players. Speaking from experience – our experts here at Screen Pilot say any more than 6 on a game-centered video chat just gets difficult…
Check out some of these other recommendations.
