Trade show games
Trade show games for a hall, not a living room
A game at an exhibition has about a minute and a person who is already standing. They can play it on a phone. A booth screen or LED wall is there when other people should watch.
What makes a game work on a show floor
Consumer games assume a chair, a controller, and time. A trade show has none of those. The round has to be obvious, short, and possible in one hand.
TradeShowPlay keeps the game in the phone browser. Staff can point at a QR code, a station, or a screen. They do not coach an install. H5 mini-games, lead-gen rounds, and scan challenges sit in the same family.
- One sentence of instruction
- A round that can end before the aisle moves
- Play on a phone, with a display only if the crowd should see it
Where games sit next to other formats
A game is the right tool when you want a stop or a conversation. A hunt is better when people should move. A draw is better when you need a scheduled crowd. A quiz or an icebreaker is better when the room should answer together.
If you are choosing for a small crew, start with one format and add a second only when someone can actually run it. A big screen is not required to start.
Questions
Do players need to download anything?
No. They join from the mobile browser with a QR code or short link.
Can we brand the round for our product?
Yes. You supply the short copy, the labels, and the result you want people to see on a phone or, if you use one, on a screen.
