Online party game with no download and no sign-up

Most online party games want an app, a console or a paid copy for the host. Rubble Rally needs a browser and a link. Up to 8 players join in seconds, on any phone or computer, for free.

Two finalists race down a desert road in The Getaway while knocked-out players watch as Wreckers — The Getaway: two finalists left, six Wreckers dropping rubble.

How a party works

One person opens the game and creates a party. The game gives a four-letter party code and a link. Everyone else taps the link and joins. There is no host screen to share and no second app: every player plays on their own device, so it works in the same room or across the world.

If you have fewer than eight people, bots fill the empty seats so every round still has a full field. You can start with just two.

The rounds

A roulette picks each round of the Show, and every round has one simple goal:

Race through checkpoint gates without being last.
Freeze in Red Light, Green Light.
Dodge falling towers.
Paint the streets in your colour.
Hide as a wheelie bin in Hide & Seek.
Run from the zombies in Zombie Tag.
Park before the music stops in Musical Parking.

The final is The Getaway: the last finalists race to a helicopter while the city collapses behind them.

A kart drives beside a street painted in yellow, purple, green and blue lanes — Paint the Town: every kart sprays its own colour.

Knocked out? Keep playing

Party games often leave the first people out staring at a screen. Here, knocked-out players become Wreckers: they pick a survivor and drop rubble on them. Each round gives Wreckers a trick of its own, like a fake robot head turn in Red Light, Green Light. Take a survivor out directly and you swap back in, once per Show.
