About

Overview

Survive Your Ideas drops up to 40 players into a round where one randomly chosen writer types any word and that word appears in the arena — tsunami, dinosaur, nuke, tacos, anything. Everyone else has to dodge whatever gets summoned and outlast the chaos. This guide walks you through the rules, how to stay alive, how to rack up wins, and how to chase down every badge.

How a round works

Step
In short Every round follows the same loop: one writer types, everyone survives — or doesn't.

At the start of each round, one player is picked at random to be the writer. That player types a word and whatever it represents appears on the field. Words keep stacking up as the round goes on, so the arena gets more dangerous over time. The last player left standing wins the match.

  1. Round start one player is chosen at random to be the writer for that round.
  2. Word entry the writer types any word and it comes to life on the field.
  3. Survival phase every other player dodges the spawned hazards and tries to outlast them.
  4. Victory the final player still standing wins the round.
