PicBait
The free picture party game for you and your mates. Hunt the internet for the funniest picture, then vote for the best one.
PicBait runs in your web browser on any phone, tablet or computer. There's nothing to download and no account to make. One person hosts a game, everyone else joins with a five-character room code or an invite link, and you play together from your own devices, in the same room or over a video call. It's for 3 to 8 players.
How to play
- Take turns as Editor. Each round, one player writes a prompt for everyone else, like "An animal that owes you money".
- Find the funniest pic. Everyone else hunts for a picture that fits: copy one from Google Images and paste it in, or upload one from your device.
- Vote for the best. The pictures are revealed anonymously, one by one. Everyone votes for their favourite, and you can't vote for your own.
- Win eternal glory. Votes become points. Whoever's top of the leaderboard after the last round wins. (Glory lasts until the next game.)

Game modes
Front Page
The original. One player writes a prompt and everyone hunts for the funniest picture to match it.
Caption Competition
Flipped around: one player picks a picture, and everyone else writes the funniest caption for it.
The Rumour Mill
A picture version of the telephone game. Everyone starts a rumour, then it's passed round in secret, swapping between words and pictures each turn. At the end you see how each rumour started and how far it fell apart.
