Meeting Plugin Game Engine

A lightweight, cross-platform pre-meeting engagement engine for Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet. Keep attendees entertained and engaged while they wait for the main session to start — no app installs required.

What it does

Meeting Plugin Game Engine runs interactive mini-games in your meeting's waiting room or pre-session lobby. Hosts control the experience, attendees participate live, and all results are saved to a dataset for post-session review.

Game modes

Emoji Trivia Show attendees a sequence of emojis and ask them to guess the brand, phrase, or concept. Great for warming up a crowd before a product launch, team meeting, or webinar.

This or That Present attendees with a binary choice (e.g. "Coffee ☕ or Tea 🍵?"). Votes are tallied in real time and the results are revealed at the end of each round.
