Shared TV experience

Traditional games, connected views

Give customers a clear way to take part

Interactive entertainment does not have to replace the games people already enjoy. PubPlay adds the joining, event structure and shared display that help a venue run those activities consistently.

01

Join from the table

Customers scan the event QR code on their own phone rather than queuing at the host desk to add a name to paper.

02

Play familiar formats

The venue can run tournaments, ranked challenges or interactive trivia without changing PubPlay into the game itself.

03

Follow as a room

A browser-based TV display keeps fixtures, results or standings visible to players and spectators.

Designed for recurring nights

A repeatable structure for venue entertainment

Once staff understand the host flow, they can apply it to different scheduled events while choosing the game and format that suit each night.

Interactive trivia

Host questions on the tablet and collect answers from phones

For trivia events, the host manages questions, opens and locks answering, scores responses and reveals the answer. Participating players or teams submit through the browser experience on their phones.

PubPlay does not generate quiz questions; the host supplies and manages the trivia content.

  • Host-managed questions and answer timing
  • Phone answer submission for the active question
  • Answer locking before scoring and reveal
  • Live standings for the room
  • Darts, pool, bingo and other traditional games remain available for separate events

Practical questions

Before you run the night

Is PubPlay only a quiz application?

No. Trivia is one supported format alongside round robin, knockout and high-score events for several traditional pub games.

Does PubPlay provide trivia questions?

No. The host creates and manages the questions. PubPlay provides the live question, phone-answer, locking, scoring and reveal workflow.

Can customers follow without playing?

The browser TV display is designed to keep event progress visible to the room, including spectators.
