You answer one question on your phone and press Send. The phone says “Sealed. Nobody sees it until the reveal.” and shows your words back, and nothing else changes: the stage everyone is watching stays as it was, and only the facilitator’s count goes up. When the facilitator presses Reveal, every answer prints on the stage at once, a row each under the question, so the first one in doesn’t read as the one that mattered most.
I built this to run the Workshop SeasonWorkshop SeasonSix one-hour workshops I ran for coworkers inside a company that doesn’t exist, where everyone played an employee and left curious about their customers’ days. on a video call. It splits a session across three screens. The stage is shared into the call and has no controls. The facilitator’s screen sits on a second monitor and holds the script, the private notes and the only count of how many answers are in. Each participant answers on their own phone, from their own link. Nobody makes an account: each person gets a staff badge with an invented name and a role, and the link is the key. A round is a window, not a countdown; the facilitator opens it and closes it.
Here the three screens sit side by side over a room of made-up participants who answer on short timers, so you can run a round yourself: join as the phone, open the round from the facilitator’s screen, send an answer, then reveal. Nothing you type leaves your browser.
