What is Spin & Solve?
A hidden phrase sits behind a row of blanks. Spin for a wedge value, choose a letter, and if it appears you bank the wedge for each occurrence — then decide whether to keep going or solve.
The rules need no explanation to anyone who has ever watched daytime television, which makes it one of the fastest games to get a mixed-age team playing without a rules briefing.

Spin & Solve questions
Do players need an account or a download?
No. Only the host needs a Fun Friday account. Everyone else joins from any browser with a 6-character room code and a display name — no app, no install, no IT ticket.
Do you have to wait for your turn to solve?
Solving happens on your turn, which is what makes the decision interesting: bank more letters and risk someone else solving first, or call it early for the bonus.
