How a round works

Step

In short Every round follows the same loop: one player clues, everyone else guesses, then roles rotate.

At the start of each round, one player is assigned the Psychic role and sees a secret spot hidden on the wheel. The wheel sits between two opposites — a topic like Spicy and Not Spicy — and the secret spot is somewhere along that spectrum. The Psychic gives exactly one clue to help everyone else figure out where that spot falls. The other players then drag the pointer to their best guess. Whoever lands closest earns the most points and gems, and then the roles switch so everyone gets a turn as the Psychic.

Psychic sees the secret spot only this player knows the exact location on the wheel.
Topic sets the two extremes the clue has to make sense somewhere between them.
One clue only the Psychic cannot explain further once the clue is given.
Everyone guesses all other players move the pointer independently.
Closer equals more rewards points and gems scale with how near you land.
Roles rotate every player gets to be the Psychic across the rounds.

Getting started with friends

Check

In short You need at least two players in the lobby before the game will begin.

The game requires a minimum of two players and will not start with just one person. Get a friend into the same lobby, make sure everyone is ready, and the game starts automatically.

At least two players are in the lobby before you expect the game to launch.
All players have confirmed they are ready so the auto-start triggers.

Controls by device

Table

In short Each platform moves the pointer differently, so check yours before your first real guess.

Moving the pointer accurately is the whole game, so knowing your controls from the start stops you from fumbling when it matters. All three platforms let you land the pointer anywhere on the wheel; they just use different inputs to get there.

PC	click and drag the pointer, or press the left and right arrow keys.
Mobile	drag the pointer across the screen with one finger.
Console	use RT/RB to move the pointer one direction and LT/LB to move it the other.

Earning points and gems

Summary

In short Accuracy is the only thing that drives rewards, so every fraction of a degree on the wheel matters.

Points and gems are awarded based purely on how close your pointer lands to the secret spot. A perfect match earns the maximum reward, and the total accumulates across every round you play. After the game ends, a results screen shows how everyone ranked, which makes it easy to see who read the Psychic best.

Accuracy　the sole factor in how many points and gems you receive.
Perfect hit　earns the highest possible reward for that round.
Cumulative total　gems build up across all rounds in the session.
Results screen　shows final rankings so you can compare with friends.

Common problems and fixes

Warn

In short Most issues come down to player count or using the wrong control for your device.

Because the game has a strict two-player minimum, a solo player will sit in a lobby that never launches. Beyond that, control confusion is the most common snag, especially on console where the trigger layout is not obvious at first glance.

Worth watching out for

The game does not start confirm at least one other player is in the lobby and everyone has readied up.

The pointer will not move double-check you are using the correct input for your platform, especially on console where triggers control movement.

Glossary

Secret spot: The hidden position on the wheel that the Psychic sees and all other players try to pinpoint with their pointer.
Topic: The pair of opposite words shown each round — such as Spicy and Not Spicy — that define the two ends of the wheel.
Pointer: The marker each player drags along the wheel to indicate where they think the secret spot is.
Clue: The single word or short phrase the Psychic says to describe the location of the secret spot on the spectrum.
Gems: In-game rewards earned each round based on how close your pointer lands to the secret spot.
