Tug of War polls
Tug of War is your clinic's just-for-fun poll game. One game runs at a time, everyone answers, and you can see how the team split. It lives in Games, and the live game also shows on the Clinic Dashboard.
Where to find it
- In Games: open Games from the menu (or the Fun & Games card on the Clinic Dashboard) and tap Tug of War. The full page shows the live game, what's queued up next, and every previous game.
- On the Clinic Dashboard: the tug of war card shows the live game and the last few finished ones. Tap view all at the bottom of the card to open the full page.
If a clinic admin switches Tug of War off in Clinic Settings → Games, it leaves both places.
Kinds of game
This or that
A classic "would you rather." The game has a question and two sides.
- Tap the side you pick.
- Your vote is locked in and your avatar joins that side, next to everyone else's.
You get one vote per game, and it can't be changed. When the game closes, the side with more votes wins.
For a million $
The question is always the same: what's the lowest dollar amount someone would have to pay you to do the dare? Then everyone names their price.
- Drag the slider to your amount, anywhere from $0 ("I'd do it for free") to $1,000,000. The slider moves in small steps at the low end, where the real game is.
- Tap Lock in to submit your price.
- Now you see everyone's answers, cheapest first. The lowest price wears the crown.
Other people's prices stay hidden until you've locked in yours, so nobody can anchor on someone else's number. A price of $1,000,000 shows as "not a chance."
Pick one
Three to six options. Tap your pick to see how the team split.
Hot take
Rate it from 1 to 10. Once you've answered, you see the spread and the team average.
Guess the number
Type your guess and tap Lock in. The right answer stays hidden until the game closes, and the closest guess wins.
Two truths & a lie
Tap the one you think is the lie. The lie is revealed when the game closes.
How games come and go
- Each game runs for a set time, shown as "2d left" or similar under it.
- When a game closes, the next one in the Up next queue goes live automatically.
- Finished games move to Previous games. Tap one to see how everyone answered.
