HOW TO PLAY ALONG

Playing along with your favorites movies or TV is easy!

If you're playing on a PC, the show will appear on the left and the game will appear on the right. If the show is streaming from YouTube, the game and show will start automatically; otherwise, read the instructions that appear in the game console and start the game when indicated (typically, after the last ad or when the network logo appears.)

Most shows stream from a network like YouTube or Netflix. Most shows are free to watch, but some may require a subscription -- whenever possible we provide a link to a free trial if you're not a subscriber. If you don't wish to subscribe, click the menu item to see all the free shows you can watch. If you're using a phone you may wish to watch on a TV or PC and play along from your phone. (This is also how you play a party game with friends.) Open the menu and click 'Play on TV' for instructions.

Android users: you can both watch and play on your phone!
