How it works

From playlist to party in 30 seconds

01

Paste a playlist

Grab the share link of any public Spotify playlist and drop it in. No Spotify login, no account — the game reads the track list for you.

02

Add your players

Type in everyone's name. GuessSong is a local party game: one screen, one host, everyone shouting answers at it.

03

Play the clip

The host hits play and a short clip (5–30 seconds, you choose) blasts out. No titles, no covers — just the music.

04

Guess & score

Everyone guesses out loud. The host taps whoever got it first — the scoreboard keeps track until a winner emerges.

Mixed Playlist Mode 🔀

Don't stop at one playlist — everyone brings their own. GuessSong merges everyone's tracks into a single mixed pool, dedupes the overlaps, and turns the round into a battle of taste: can you tell whose playlist a song came from?

Pass This Phone

No backend, no waiting. Each player takes the host's device, types their name and their Spotify playlist link, then passes it on — a masked "✓ added" confirms it without revealing their tracks to the room.

QR Code Room

The host taps Create Room and gets a 4-character code plus a QR code. Players scan it (or open the shared link) on their own phone, submit their playlist, and watch it appear on the host's screen live.

Save a Taste Card

When the game ends, download a shareable Taste Card: the “Shared Bangers” every playlist had in common, plus two awards — Most Obscure Taste (whose picks were hardest for the room to guess) and Most Mainstream (highest average Spotify popularity).

Scoring

The host is the judge

No typing, no autocorrect arguments. Players shout their guesses, and the host taps the fastest correct answer on the scoreboard.

+3Song title. First player to name the track takes the big points.
+1Album name. A bonus for the true fans who know where the track lives.
+2Whose playlist? Mixed Playlist mode only — guess which player contributed the track for a bonus.

Why GuessSong

Built for game night, not for sign-ups

No login required

No Spotify account, no sign-up, no cookies-wall. Open the page and play.

Any public playlist

Your road-trip mix, K-pop hits, 80s classics — if it's a public Spotify playlist, it works.

Mixed Playlist Mode

Merge everyone's playlists into one pool and see who can guess whose taste is playing.

Zero setup

Nothing to install, nothing stored on a server. All game state lives in your browser.

Tune the difficulty

5-second clips for the pros, 30 seconds for a chill night. Pick how many songs each round runs.

QR code rooms

No app to install — players scan a code and submit their own playlist from their own phone.

Smart audio fallback

When Spotify has no preview for a track, GuessSong automatically finds one on iTunes or Deezer.

Free & open source

The whole thing is open code on GitHub. Fork it, remix it, host your own.
