How to play

  1. The hummer sees the title of a public-domain carol. No words, just humming.
  2. Your team names it before the timer ends.
  3. Titles only: no lyrics are shown.

The deck has 30 cards written for this game: 10 for kids, 11 for the whole family, 9 for adults and teens. Pick the youngest player's age and only suitable ones are used.

What the app does for you

The app shuffles the deck, runs a turn timer for each team that you can pause or extend, and keeps the score. No card repeats until the whole deck has been used, and the card on screen when time runs out goes back to the bottom. The host can undo the last score.

Played on one device: a phone, tablet or a laptop on the TV. Nothing to join, and it works offline once the site has loaded.
