Just Wing It — and More Where That Came From

October 2026

Our newest minigame is live between rounds: Just Wing It. Alternate left and right to eat, watch the heat meter climb, and drink your milk before your head pops. The big screen shows the whole bar's suffering in real time.

It's the third new game in a month, after Last Call and 8 Seconds of Bull, and we're just getting warmed up. Got an idea for one? Let us know — we're listening.

And if you know a bar that would like to add the trivia game, please, please tell us. We'd love to expand the experience.

Squashed a Few Bugs

September 2026

Some bar screens were going dark after the overnight restart. Fixed. Also tightened up a few things behind the scenes.

iPhone folks: if you still see the question but no answer buttons, let us know. Your phone quietly sends us diagnostics and every report helps us track it down.

Reminder: top trivia score this month takes home a $100 Amazon gift card. Go get it.
