Build complete live interactive productions from a huge library of game formats. Mix trivia, Bingo, buzzers, music, drawing, pricing games, audience challenges and more into your own running order - with scoring, eliminations, media, AI cohosts and compatible animatronic characters. Run online, or download Game Show Studio and run core gameplay locally.
Game Show Studio turns a laptop into a complete interactive game-show production environment. You create a running order made from many different game formats and control the entire production from one place.
It is not a launcher for isolated games - it's the show itself: rounds, scores, teams, media and an audience that stays connected the whole time.
Build the whole night once, then run it from one screen.
Sequence as many rounds and formats as you like, in the order you want, and reuse the show again next week.
Track individual and team scores across rounds, run eliminations, and crown a winner on the scoreboard.
Narrow the field by score between rounds so the final showdown is down to the people who earned it.
Drop media, music beds and sound effects into the show so it feels produced, not just presented.
Give sponsors and promotional ads a place in the show between rounds - a revenue stream built into the flow.
Timers, scoreboards, player management and a host console that keeps every moving part under your thumb.
Game Show Studio has its own extensive and growing catalog of formats - so one show never feels like the last one.
These are the formats that run inside Game Show Studio. The wider Gig Game catalog - party games, interactive walls, tools - is separate.
Mix any of these into one running order.
Players scan once. Their phone might start as a trivia pad, then become a buzzer, a Bingo card, a drawing board, a voting device or a camera.
The host changes the game. The audience stays connected.
Spend less time creating content and more time entertaining the room. Describe the show you want, let AI generate the material, customize it, then run it as part of your running order.
AI helps create the material. You stay in control of what reaches the audience.
An AI personality can work alongside the human host: introducing parts of the show, running rounds, talking with the audience, even appearing picture-in-picture so it becomes part of the entertainment.
Meet characters like Sally Sharp and Barney Bartflast.
You don't have to host the entire show alone.
Game Show Studio supports animated digital hosts as well as compatible physical animatronic characters - a game-show cohost, attraction character, trivia host, greeter, themed entertainment character or trade-show draw.
