Is the spin the wheel game free?

Yes — completely free. No signup, no subscription, no ads, no in-app purchases. The site is supported by being delightfully cheap to run (it's a single static site that does most work in your browser, not on our servers).

Can I add my own slices?

Yes. Open the Entries tab and type whatever you want, one entry per line. The slices automatically resize to fit — 2 slices, 30 slices, 200 slices, all work. Long entries auto-wrap on the slice.

How do I customize the look of the wheel?

Open Settings to pick a wheel shape (circle, hexagon, star, etc.), choose a color palette, set spin duration, toggle sound and confetti, and switch between Wheel and Bottle modes. Open the Colors tab to set custom colors per slice.

Can I play with friends online?

Yes. Click 'Host room' to start a multiplayer session — you'll get a 6-character code and an invite link. Friends who open the link join the same wheel; the host spins and everyone watches the same animation in real time. Works across phones, tablets, and desktops with no app install.

Can I save my wheels?

Yes. Wheels are saved automatically to your browser's localStorage. Click '+' to create a new wheel, name it ('Game Night', 'Birthday Prizes', etc.), and switch between wheels with the dropdown. Entries, custom colors, and history persist between visits.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. The interface is fully responsive and the wheel can be spun by tapping it. Fullscreen mode is also supported — useful for showing the wheel to a group on a phone.

Why a digital spin-the-wheel beats a physical one

Physical spin-the-wheel games (the carnival-style ones with a clicker tab) are great theatre but limited: fixed slices, fixed prizes, fixed location. A digital wheel inherits all the theatre — the slow deceleration, the satisfying click as it lands — and adds (a) infinite slice customization, (b) save/reuse for recurring games, (c) shareability across devices, (d) cryptographically fair randomness, and (e) zero physical setup.

The physics of the digital wheel are tuned to feel like the physical one: an exponential decay curve, slight variance in spin duration, a tick sound for each slice as it passes the pointer. Most users don't notice the careful detail until they use a wheel that doesn't have it — most online wheel-spinners feel 'off' because they use linear deceleration or no audio feedback.

Spin the wheel patterns

Names mode: classic wheel-of-names. Each slice is a person; the spin picks one. Used for cold-calling, raffles, picking who-goes-next.

Prompts mode: each slice is an action ('Sing', 'Dance', 'Tell a joke'). Used for parties, icebreakers, truth-or-dare variants.

Prizes mode: each slice is a reward ('+10 points', 'Lose a turn', 'Free dessert'). Used for Wheel-of-Fortune-style game shows and kids' birthday parties.

Decisions mode: each slice is an option ('Pizza', 'Sushi', 'Thai'). Used to break ties when group chats won't converge.

Switch between modes by saving them as separate wheels — the underlying engine is the same, only the slice contents differ.

Multiplayer tips for live games

Hosting a multiplayer wheel for a remote game night: click 'Host room', share the URL in your group chat, and ask friends to open it. Their wheels sync to yours — when you spin, they spin in real time. Useful for game nights over Zoom, Discord, or just 'I'll text you the link'.

Only the host can spin in multiplayer. This prevents the chaos of 'who hit the button first' and ensures all viewers see the same starting frame. The host can transfer or end the room at any time.
