TikTok Live word games
Word games fit a TikTok Live chat perfectly, because the chat is already a stream of words. In every game here viewers play by typing a word in your chat, and the game checks it, fills it in on screen with their name or picture, and scores it. That turns a puzzle you would normally solve alone into one the whole room solves together, with a leaderboard to keep it competitive. There is a word search, two crossword boards built from one set of letters, a hidden word race, a five-letter word game, a word association grid and a drawing guessing game, each with its own word bank in ten or more languages. Your viewers play from the TikTok app with nothing to install, and you add the game to your stream as one browser source in OBS, Streamlabs or TikTok LIVE Studio.
Which word game fits your stream
Word search
Word Hunt hides twenty words in a letter grid. Viewers can type a word they spot, or just call out a square like C7, and the whole word it belongs to lights up with their face on it. Boards are generated live from your word bank, so they never repeat.
Crossword boards
Word Cross and Word Swipe both build a board of crossing words from one shared set of letters, so every word a viewer solves gives the room a clue to the rest. Word Cross deals the letters on a rack and marks a star word worth double. Word Swipe puts them on a wheel and keeps the board up until the last word is found.
Guess the word
Find the Word hides a secret word as blank tiles. Any guess that matches more of the word than is showing uncovers those letters for everyone, and the first viewer to type the whole word wins the round. It plays like hangman for a whole chat.
Five-letter words
Five Letters is a Wordle-style game for a whole chat. Every five-letter guess lands on one shared board with its letters in green, gold or grey, an A to Z strip tracks every letter found, and the first viewer to type the hidden word wins. There is no timer by default, so a word runs until chat cracks it.
Association and drawing
Word Association shows one prompt and a grid of hidden associations, and viewers race to fill each slot, with combo points for quick back-to-back fills. Guess the Drawing is a drawing guessing game: a sketch draws itself stroke by stroke from over 14,000 drawings, or you draw it yourself, while the chat races to name it.
Built for a busy chat
Per-viewer cooldowns and guess limits stop one fast typist from flooding the board, and Word Hunt can flash a first letter when the room goes quiet. In every game except Guess the Drawing you can hide words you do not want and add your own per language, and every game lets you choose who plays: everyone, followers only, or your fans club only.
Your word bankFrequently asked questions
How do viewers play a word game on TikTok Live?
They type a word in your TikTok Live chat. The game checks it against the board, fills it in on screen with the viewer name or picture, and scores it. In Word Hunt a viewer can also call out a grid square like C7.
Which languages do the word games support?
Each game runs in ten or more languages, with a word bank for each language, so your viewers guess in the language they actually type in.
Can I add my own words?
Yes, in every word game except Guess the Drawing. You can hide words or puzzles you do not want and add your own per language from the content manager. On a paid plan you can also import a whole spreadsheet of words at once.
Do word games work on a small stream?
Yes. The boards are collaborative, so a handful of viewers can solve them together, and Word Swipe has no round timer at all: the board stays up until its last word is found.
Do my viewers need to install anything?
No. Viewers play by typing in the TikTok Live chat they already use. You add the game once as a browser source in OBS, Streamlabs or TikTok LIVE Studio.
