What is Spintopia?

Get ready to play and host the coolest spin on the classic game “Hangman”! Our games are created to give you tons of customization and flexibility for you and the Contestants. Our suggestion is to use this as a guide to learn, host and play in a way that provides the best experience for your group.

A contestant chooses to spin the Spinner to determine a dollar value and guess a consonant, with the goal of earning money and solving the puzzle. Calling a correct letter earns the value that the Spinner lands on, multiplied by the number of times that the letter appears in the puzzle. A Contestant with at least $250 may buy a vowel for a flat rate of that amount, until all the vowels in the puzzle have been revealed. Calling a correct letter keeps the spinner in the Contestant's control. All available options to each Contestant will be made available by a mouse click selection on the right hand side of the Puzzle Board.

Why do people LOVE Spintopia?

"We had a resident that doesn't come to many activities come out and was very pleased, one that is surprisingly competitive for a proper lady, and many others just enjoy the game. Again I cannot express how pleased we are with Spintopia."
