Wheel of Fortune Zoom game

A Wheel of Fortune Zoom game works best when the host shares the game board and every participant joins the room from a phone or browser. The active player gets the relevant controls on their own device.

Fortunate Wheel lets you build the game in a browser and run it for remote classrooms, virtual team building, online parties, church groups, and family calls.

Choose team or individual play when you launch. The host can guide the pace, approve late arrivals, adjust scores, or take control without relying on chat guesses.

How to create and host it

1Create the game before the call and test your screen share.
2Choose teams or individuals when you create the room.
3Share the room code so each participant can join from a browser.
4Keep the shared board visible while the active player uses the controls on their device.
5Keep rounds short and announce whose turn is next.
