Multiplayer games in Discord Nitro
Discord has added a handful of vibrant and easy-to-digest games to its growing list of in-app features. Much like the YouTube watch party feature it launched, these mini-games can be similarly accessed through the Activities panel when inside a server’s voice channel. The list of all multiplayer games available via Discord Nitro includes platform staples such as Chess and Checkers, but there are also other unique entries like Bash Out and Know What I Meme.
There are currently a total of 14 playable mini-games in Discord’s title listings which consist of the following:
- Ask Away – a maximum of 10 participants may join in this entry. Personal questions are asked about a specific person, and all other participants compete to get the right answer.
- Bash Out – a vibrant miniature car game wherein players attempt to bump each other out of the arena.
- Know What I Meme – similar to how Cards Against Humanity works, players are given a choice between two templates, and all participants must fill out the chosen template as funnily as they can.
- Putt Party – a miniature golf game that crams groups into the same course, each with different obstacles.
- Poker Night – a classic game of Texas Hold ‘Em Poker but without the money, of course.
