Bamboozled, the Friends trivia game

What is Bamboozled?

Bamboozled is the game show Joey auditions to host in Friends, in the season 8 episode The One with the Baby Shower. Ross and Chandler play as practice contestants, nobody on screen can explain the rules, and the whole thing falls apart over Wicked Wango cards.

This is that show, built as a real game you can play in a browser. Free, no sign-up, one wheel a day.

It is a Friends trivia quiz underneath

Every question card is Friends trivia, drawn from a deck of 160 questions about the show itself: the apartments, the jobs, the weddings, the arguments, the things people said. There is no casting trivia and no questions about the actors.

Answer 20 of them at 90% accuracy and the game calls you a Certified Friends Expert.

How to play

You and Chandler race up a seven-rung ladder. Spin the wheel, take whatever wedge it lands on, and answer before the clock runs out. Right answers climb, wrong answers fall, and a run of correct answers in a row pays a bonus.

The wheel also holds Googlies that cancel a wrong answer, a Pirate Ship worth double, a Ricochet, Screw Your Neighbour, and one Bamboozled wedge that wipes a ladder back to zero. First to rung seven wins the taping.

Chandler plays the identical game on the identical wheel, and he can be Bamboozled just as easily as you can.

A new wheel every day

Everyone in the world gets the same wheel, the same cards and the same Chandler each day, so a score is worth comparing. It resets at midnight UTC.

Finish a taping and you get an emoji fingerprint of how your climb actually went, a short link to share it, and a place on the leaderboard.
