Closest Wins

Guess close. Never go over.

Closest Wins is a free Price-Is-Right-style trivia game. Every round asks a numeric question, everyone types a guess, and the closest guess without going over scores. Bust by going over and you get nothing, so guess bold but stay under.

How to play Closest Wins

🔢

One number question

Each round shows a numeric trivia question — bones in a body, the year of a famous first, the height of a mountain. Everyone secretly types their best guess before the clock runs out.

💥

Never go over

Price-is-Right rules: any guess OVER the true answer BUSTS and scores nothing. Guess bold, but stay under!

🎯

Closest wins +2

The closest guess that didn’t go over scores +2 (ties share it). Nail the exact answer for +3. If the whole room overshoots, nobody scores!

🏆

Race to the podium

The host picks 4, 6, or 8 rounds, then the podium. You can update your guess any time until the timer — once everyone locks in, the reveal comes early.
