Common questions

Is the game free?

Yes. There is no charge to play, no account required, and the game runs entirely in your browser.

Where do my custom prompts go?

They're stored locally in your browser. Clearing your browser storage removes them. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Can I suggest a new category or feature?

Absolutely. Email us with the suggestion. We do read everything and many of the built-in categories started as user requests.

Are you affiliated with the physical 5 Second Rule board game?

No. This is an independent online implementation of the public party-game category-and-timer mechanic. Trademarks belonging to the physical board-game publisher are the property of their respective owners.
