Setting up a game
Outta Pocket runs from the PlayOS section of the dashboard, not from an event. Pick a pack, share the code, and start when enough players have joined.
Plan
Pro and Enterprise
PlayOS is included on Pro and Enterprise. On Core, Outta Pocket is shown locked in the game picker. TriviaOS, which shares the same picker, is on every plan.

Put it on the TV
Click Push To Venue Display on the host panel. The prompt, the reveal, and the judge’s pick all show on the big screen so the room follows along, not only the players.
Note
Who runs it
A host runs the game from the panel on a phone, tablet, or laptop. The host does not have to be a player. The judge each round is one of the players, chosen in rotation.
