Behind the scenes at baræ
Playing stays free.
Advertising helps keep baræ running: hosting the site, maintaining the games, and creating new ones.
The goal stays the same: games everyone can play for free.
1. J’annonce !: make a claim, then deliver
A topic appears and players bid aloud on how many answers they can name. The last bidder must deliver before time runs out; the group counts and validates answers. Discover J’annonce ! for quick spoken challenges without a player roster or overall scoreboard.
After a bluff call, success eliminates the challenger; failure eliminates the bidder. Play continues with the remaining players, and the last one wins.
2. Babel: words and hidden motives
For 4–18 players, Babel combines coded words, hidden sides, discussion and voting. Keep private information hidden while trying to work out who shares your goal. Read the Babel guide or check its rules.
3. CasaBianco: a word to find, saboteurs to spot
For 4–12 players, secret letter choices and opposing sides turn word finding into social deduction. Allies try to succeed while Saboteurs know the answer and pursue the opposite goal. A successful word can lead to a vote. Discover CasaBianco’s reinvention of hangman.
4. TROVEU: words under pressure
From 2–12 players, place letters before or after those already shown. The final letter triggers a timer; penalties change the constraints. The group validates answers and eliminations matter. Read the TROVEU rules before choosing your timer.
5. La petite BOMB
A category and letter stay on screen for the whole round. Each player says a word and passes the phone, without repeating an earlier answer. The timer is hidden. Whoever holds the phone when it explodes is eliminated.
The category does not change with each pass: the easy answers get used up, but nobody knows how much time is left.
6. Damas
Believers and Traitors travel in secret. Discuss, vote and protect your secrets, with or without the Messenger’s letter.
The narrator guides secret nights and daytime councils. Believers seek the Traitors among them. In Messenger mode, protecting a letter adds another path to victory.
8–18 players + 1 narrator. For a large group that enjoys debate and secret identities. Set aside one person as the neutral narrator.
7. REMEZ !: clues become shared memories
At least four people form two teams. The same Bible cards return over three rounds: descriptions, one word and acting. Select familiar cards and balance knowledge between teams. See REMEZ ! and our Christian game night ideas.
8. J’annonce la Parole
A Bible theme, spoken bids and a timed challenge. Bid a number of answers… then keep your word.
Players bid on how many answers they can give on a Bible theme. When someone calls “You’re bluffing!”, the last bidder must deliver within the time limit. The group validates the answers.
A group, every player for themselves. For a Christian gathering with memory challenges and bold bids. Choose a difficulty that fits participants’ knowledge.
9. N’oubliez pas la parole
Two teams fill in missing words from a Bible passage. Bid on your memory and wager points across two rounds.
The reference and first three words remain visible. Teams bid how many words they can recall; the highest bidder answers. A referee from the opposing team holds the phone and checks the words.
2 teams. For a group familiar with Bible passages that enjoys recalling them together. The reference text is the Louis Segond 1910 Bible.
10. La petite Bible
A Bible category appears, with or without a required letter depending on the format. Answer aloud, then pass the phone. The category stays the same throughout the round and answers cannot repeat. When the angels sing, the person holding the phone is eliminated.
Free categories let you draw on Bible memories; letter categories add a constraint. You need a new answer, without reciting a verse word for word.
11. Tekkit !: safe card or trap?
For 3–12 players, your neighbor knows the card and you choose whether it is safe or trapped. A wrong decision can eliminate you. Recognizing a trap eliminates its holder; accepting a safe card lets play continue. Check Tekkit ! for the complete outcomes.
12. dudududuel: pick your rival
Two rivals face a challenge and a third player referees, within a group of 3–12. The challenger picks an opponent and one of three trials. Twenty challenge types cover words, reflexes, estimates and more. Nobody is eliminated; reach the selected target score to win. Our dudududuel guide explains the rules and five optional variants.
Keep the first game simple
Charge the phone, check the connection and demonstrate one turn. Pick two games but keep the second as a backup: if everyone enjoys the first, let it continue. Compare all baræ games and choose the one your friends want to try.
Three situations that change the recommendation
Four people who dislike elimination: REMEZ can work with shared Bible references; dudududuel keeps players in a points contest, but only two compete in a given duel while a third judges. Neither promises simultaneous action for everyone.
Nine people who enjoy discussion: Damas becomes possible with eight players and one narrator. If no one wants to narrate, consider Babel or CasaBianco within their player limits.
A group avoiding knowledge questions: distinguish setting from prerequisites. Babel and Damas use Bible-inspired settings without testing Christian knowledge. Completing Bible passages in N’oubliez pas la parole relies on specific recall. These are editorial recommendations within our own catalog, not an independent market ranking.
Two Bible challenges for a solo break
This selection covers baræ’s twelve group games. The catalogue also includes Quel verset ?, a daily solo Bible game with five guesses to find a reference. It is a separate experience from a group party game. Read how its clues work before trying a challenge on your own.
Another solo option is Dans la Bible: guess a Bible person, place or event from the characteristics revealed after each attempt. Optional hints can open a new lead, with their points cost shown in advance. Our daily Bible guessing game guide explains how to begin. This individual challenge can extend a gathering without replacing a group game.
Seven daily solo challenges
For an individual break, discover seven daily games: two quizzes, a mystery, a Bible verse reference, a crossword, connections in La Chaîne and bingo with BibGo.
Try La Chaîne to connect Bible stories, or BibGo to match characters to categories on a bingo grid.
