Questions before your next round

What is FormFieber? Is it free?

It is a free multiplayer browser game where one player builds a secret word in 3D and the others guess in chat. You can create a private room, join Quick Play or practice alone without buying the game or creating an account. No game download is required.

How many players can join?

Private matches need at least two connected players and support a host-selected maximum up to twelve. Public Quick Play rooms allow up to eight. Practice works alone.

How do private rooms work?

Create a room and share the code or invitation link with friends. They enter a name and join. Anyone with the code can join if there is space, including during a private match. Share it carefully; this is not a confidential messaging service. Duplicate names in a private room must be changed.

What if Quick Play is empty?

Wait in the public lobby for another player. With two connected players, a five-second countdown starts. There are no simulated opponents. Quick Play never assigns strangers to private rooms.

Can I practice alone and keep a model?

Yes. Practice has no timer, points or required secret word. Save & leave stores the model in this browser. Save model also downloads a JSON file; Load model restores a compatible file in Practice. Clearing website data can erase a device save. Keep a downloaded copy of important work; there is no cloud collection.

How do points work?

A correct guess earns 100–500 points based on remaining time. The builder gets 100 per correct answer. Likes/dislikes do not change points. See How to Play for the round sequence.

Will the letter hints eventually give away the answer?

No. During guessing, hints uncover letters from left to right but leave part of the answer hidden. They show at most three quarters of the letters, rounded down; a three-letter answer can show two. Spaces are already visible and do not count toward that limit. Short words receive fewer hints, and the timing adapts to the round length. The full answer appears when the turn ends. See How to Play for an example.

Which browsers work? Can I play on mobile?

Use an up-to-date browser with JavaScript, WebGL2 and hardware-accelerated graphics available. If the workbench stays blank, update your browser and check its graphics-acceleration setting. If shapes respond slowly, close other graphics-heavy tabs and try a simpler model in Practice. Performance depends on your device and browser.

The layout adapts to mobile and editor buttons remain available, but precise 3D editing is easiest with a mouse or trackpad. Try Practice on your device before organizing a match. No separate mobile app is required.

Can English and German players play together?

Yes. EN / DE changes interface text and word labels. Players can use different languages in the same room; guess in your own selected language. Names and chat messages are not translated. Both labels refer to the same object.

Why did my room or progress disappear?

Rooms and scores live in server memory. Empty rooms are removed; server restarts discard rooms. A disconnected session is normally kept for up to 30 seconds. Reloading the same tab may reconnect, but deliberately leaving or clearing session data can prevent it. Downloaded model files are separate from temporary match progress.

Is there voice chat, a kick button or public sharing?

The game has text chat, not built-in voice chat. There are no lobby kick/ban buttons or public Gallery, publishing or comment features. You can leave a room at any time.

How can I report a problem?
