Monster Match is the best middle school game for getting the sillies out. We created it specifically for goofy middle school students and youth workers who occasionally behave like middle schoolers. It’s guaranteed to get your peeps laughing and having a good time. 

Name in a Box is exactly what it sounds like! You can enter as many names, prizes, challenges, verses, etc into the dashboard and a really long arm will randomly select one at a time from the box! It's painfully simple, but that's the point! It's a really easy way to pick a student for a game or to pick prizes. 

One of Each is a fast-paced game that has students taking turns calling out items in a given category without repeating the same first letter. Each time an item is called out, you just enter its first letter on your keyboard and it’s taken off the board. If that letter is entered again, you’ll hear a buzz and that student is out! 

Out of 10 gives best friends a chance to prove how well they know each other! One friend is blindfolded while the other can see the screen. A number will be chosen at random (ie 4 out of 10) and the friend who can see has to give the other examples of things they think they would give that rating. For example, if you have to get your friend to guess 8 out of 10 and you know they love sushi, you’d say something, “We’re getting sushi and there’s a 20 minute wait.” If they guess the correct rating, you get a point! 

It’s nice to have a game that doesn’t take a lot of explaining beforehand and is simple to run. That’s why we have Pig Scoreboard. Most people have played at least one game of PIG, even in the olden times: “Thee hast error thine own shot. Thou art now adorn with P-I-G.”

Pose This Way is a crowd favorite that doesn’t require any setup. The screen will flash 6 different poses (The Pray, The No Way, The Whey, The Oh Hey, The Hooray, and The Chipotle). Everyone has to stand up and make one of the poses where they’re standing. If the game stops on the pose that a student is doing, they have to sit down. Just keep eliminating students until there’s only one left! 

Prize Boxes is a quick and simple way to give out prizes to the students in your youth group!. All you need to do is add pictures into the settings and the game will take care of the rest! You can have it randomly select a box, or you can have a student pick the one they want to open. What’s inside? You decide! You can add as many prizes as you’d like and the game will update the number of boxes on the screen! 

The Prize Wheel is one of our favorite apps. It’s a great way to bring up the energy in the room. It takes very little setup and is always a winner. You can set up as many slots as you want. You can even set the size and color of the slot! The best part is, you can change the slots on the fly! If you need to change, "20 pushups" to be 80% of the wheel just before the spin it... you can do that! 

Here’s why the normal way of using raffle tickets isn’t the best. When you give someone a raffle ticket, you tear off the bottom ticket and hand them the top one. At the end of the event, you reach into a hat filled with bottom tickets and pull one out. The problem is that not every bottom ticket makes it to the hat, especially if you have multiple volunteers handing out tickets. This app fixes that! 

Who doesn't need a Red vs Blue scoreboard? This is the perfect way to keep score between opposing players, teams, or entire sections of the crowd. If you use any kind of "versus" game in your youth ministry, Red vs Blue is exactly what you need on screen. It requires no setup and just uses a few buttons to control the scores! 

Rock, Paper, Scissors is exactly what is sounds like! It's a great game to play with all of your students. Just have everyone pick a hand, then let the app pick one at random... or cheat and force it to land on the hand that you want! Watch the walk-through video below to see it in action! 

You’re not going to believe this, but Scoreboard is a scoreboard! We know, right? All joking aside, Scoreboard is an easy-to-use scoreboard with a timer and custom team names. Just hit the up/down arrow keys to add/ remove points. Use the top row of numbers to add/remove a batch of points! The clock can be set to whatever you want! If you want to keep track of team points, Scoreboard is the tool for you! 

Scramble is your classic word game where the tiles are scrambled and students have to figure out the words/phrases on the screen. All you have to do is enter the words/phrases that you want to use in the dashboard and the game will take care of the rest! This is perfect for students' names, movie titles, or if you want to make it really difficult, Biblical genealogy! 

Secret Squares is a blast! You select any images that you want and they’ll be covered by a bunch of squares. Your students have to figure out what the full image is as you reveal one square at a time! The first student to get it right will win that round! With the touch of a button, you can change the difficulty from just a handful of big squares to an insane amount of tiny squares! 

Shake It Out is a blast! Just grab some contestants and have them shake ping pong balls out of tissue boxes that are strapped around their waists. The first person to shake out all of their ping pong balls before the clock runs out is the winner. The app has a customizable countdown clock with digital ping pong balls that fall when you hit letter keys on your keyboard. 

Shifty Dot is a fantastic tool that can be used for a bunch of different games. We'll give you some ideas, but you can really do whatever you want with this one. The app is simple: Just pick the number of players and the screen with be filled with a group of boxes. A little white dot shifts around while it counts down. Watch the walk-through video below to get an idea of what you can do with this one. 

Ships and Sailors is a classic youth ministry game that gets your students running around the room while they try to preform the actions on screen. For example, when the game lands on Starboard, everyone runs to the right side of the room. When it lands on Row, students have to get in groups of 4 and pretend to row the boat. Anyone slacking or not able to pair up for a task is OUT! 

You can only move when it's night time! That's the number one rule of the game. Clear out your youth room and split the floor into four large sections with tape. Take four decks of cards and spread them out all over four sections. Challenge your students to find every card of one suit (Ace through King). You cannot move in a section that is daytime on the screen. If you do, you're out! The first student (or group) to collect all 13 cards of the same suit will win! 

Song Bite is a new game that plays short snippets from songs that you upload. Students have to guess the name of the song and the band based on less than a second of audio. You control what songs you use, what part of the song that plays, and how long it plays for! Just grab a bunch of mp3s of your favorite songs and you’re in business! 

Spinner is a fantastic tool that can be used for a bunch of different games. We'll give you some ideas, but you can really do whatever you want with this one. The app is simple: Just pick the number of players and the screen with be filled with a group of boxes. A little white dot shifts around while it counts down. Watch the walk-through video below to get an idea of what you can do with this one. 

What happens when you mix frogger and minesweeper? You get some splodin frogs! Splodin Frogs is a youth group game that challenges your students to work together to get a frog through a pond scattered with bombs! The indicator on the left tells you how many lily pads have bombs underneath them, but it doesn’t tell you which ones they are. If you land on a bomb, your frog “splodes” and you’re sent back to the beginning. 

The Stage Gauge is a great tool that makes your games way more fun! Imagine scoring a dance-off contest with a giant applause meter on the screen! Or create a head-to-head-to-head-to-head contest between freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Then use the Stage Gauge to show the winner! The possibilities are endless. You can set the color, size, and text of each section. To move the needle, simply hover your mouse over a colored rectangle in your dashboard. It's that easy! Check out the video below for a walk-through!
