How to start

  1. Open Gonfetti on your phone and start a room. Bots fill the empty seats, so you can play right away. Nothing to install.
  2. Friends join with the room's link or code, each on their own phone, side by side or far away.
  3. Or put Gonfetti on a TV, laptop or tablet everyone can see: everyone scans the QR code, and their phone becomes their controller. Gamepads and keyboards work too.

How to play Dodgecahedron

Hit the other team with the balls until none of them is left on the court.

How you win: a round ends when one team has nobody on the court (or after 2 minutes: then the team with more players left wins it). Win two rounds to win the match. The full match adds a faster golden ball and a big one, and can be everyone against everyone, with 3 lives each.

  1. Pick up, step back, throw

    Walk onto a ball and pick it up. Back off behind the dashed line on your side, face a rival and throw: it flies the way you face.

  2. A hit sends them to the bench

    A thrown ball hits the first rival it reaches: they go to their team's bench. A ball that has bounced or landed hurts nobody.

  3. Catch it instead

    Press catch just as a ball reaches you. Then the thrower goes to the bench, and your teammate who has waited longest comes back on.

  4. Last team standing

    A round ends when one team has nobody left on the court. Win two rounds to win the match.
