We've squashed bugs and made behind-the-scenes improvements to bring Netflix members the best possible gameplay experience.
Best Guess Live is the social trivia game for people who hate memorizing dates and middle names. It’s a brilliant equalizer; you don't need to know exactly how many gallons of water are in the ocean, you just need to be closer than your opponent. This shift from 'Recall' to 'Estimation' makes it a much more accessible and high-energy party game. You aren't punished for not knowing an obscure fact; you're rewarded for having good intuition.
The 'Live' element is executed perfectly. Playing in real-time against a global lobby adds a thrill that a static quiz simply can't match. The UI is incredibly clean, using a simple slider for your guesses that feels tactile and responsive. The variety of categories—from geography to pop culture and weird science—ensures that everyone has a chance to shine. It’s a smart, social, and fast-paced experience that turns every match into a hilarious debate about 'how big things actually are.' It’s the perfect digital companion for game nights.
Real-Time Multiplayer Matches
Interactive Number Line Guessing
Global Live Leaderboards
Diverse Trivia Categories
In high-stakes rounds, don't aim for the exact middle if you aren't sure. Watch where your opponents are placing their markers; sometimes placing your guess just slightly outside the cluster guarantees you more points if the answer is an outlier.
Submitting your guess quickly grants a 'Speed Bonus.' However, if you are the closest player in the lobby, you get the 'Expert Multiplier' regardless of how fast you were. Balance speed and accuracy!
Yes, you can create a 'Private Room' and send a join code to your friends for an exclusive match.
I’m having a problem withdrawing my winnings seems to be a glitch connecting to the PayPal acct . It takes me back to best guess live opening page after I log into Paypay acct. then it’s a screen saying leaving paypay just to take me to App Store to open Best guess live game . then I open Best guess live game and it’s PayPal just loading .Nothing on screen. I just hope I could get this fixed before the days pass and my winnings are forfeited. This is not good. After an hour the issue was resolved. Thanks for the quick fix.
I was able to win real money and being able to play is so much fun once you get the hang of it ! My first time I guessed the first clue first round silly move I had made because that was my ONLY guess I had that round . So my next round and rounds after I made sure to guess when 100 percent certain . I’m playing per usual and I guessed because of a show I was watching and I put waterfall and turned it off i got just , couple days later I come back on and saw I won $600 real cash ! So cool honestly. I’m happy with it !
Ok…. I’m a random kinda gal who only does a few things consistently, like work and sleep, because I HAVE too. But this show is so much fun, fast paced, and at 15-20 min a night… it’s a short commitment for what could be a cash windfall. I’m back night after night bc I get excited when the reminders ding. Put on your thinking caps, and don’t envision the clues as they appear. Taking them at face value may cost you the win! You wanna be fast, but you GOTTA be right! Good luck!
If you went through how many people guessed it correctly before you showed the answer, I believe the game would be a bit more “nail biting” Example: “Let’s see how many people guessed it right on the 5th clue…..7 thousand people!….4th clue, this many people, 3rd, 2nd, And only 1 person got the correct guess on the First Clue! Let’s see what the answer was!!”
I love this Game, Howie Mandel is the bomb, I suppose we have to live with Hunter Marsh lol there are occasional issues where the sound is frozen or the video isn’t there, but there’s one thing I just realized all these technical issues happen when Mr. Marsh’s on curious, it could just be a coincidence but other than that, it really makes you think about all the clues that are given and I tell all my friends try to get them to play so thank you to Netflix for doing this and I hope it continues for a long time.
You must play it’s fun for all then you think about it after it’s been said and it makes sense. It’s just a way of getting some laughs and sometimes getting paid for it. I love it. I think it’s fun so glad I found this app. The hosts are awesome and I love it how you could hear everyone around them laughing this is part of a great start to 2026.
Games are not too long… just right length of time. I had right answer on 2nd clue, “S’mores”, for the life of me I couldn’t remember what they were called! lol. Also our whole family is playing in different households. We have a whole chat group for the different family members playing and that’s been fun too!
This opportunity to earn money by participating in live game shows offers a sense of hope to individuals who may need a bit of extra income for various purposes. It is both a thoughtful and engaging concept, providing financial possibilities in an enjoyable way. I hope to be fortunate enough to win at least once.
