The official store describes local multiplayer for one to four players and says most modes also support single-player. It does not list built-in online multiplayer, so remote sessions need an external voice call or screen-sharing setup.
How local multiplayer works
A local group can share the same computer and microphone, taking turns as the game presents prompts and recordings. Up to four players can participate according to the official store. A single USB microphone in the center of the room is simple, while a headset is quieter but needs to be passed between players.
Before the first scored round, set a consistent mouth-to-mic distance and recording level. That prevents a quiet player from being judged against a loud player simply because the input changed.
- Connect one microphone and confirm that the selected input produces clean playback.
- Add the participating contestants and agree on a simple turn order.
- Choose a pack everyone recognizes so that the first round tests the setup, not trivia knowledge.
- Keep each recording short and avoid touching the microphone while passing it.
What single-player offers
Most modes can run with one person, making solo play useful for exploring packs, practicing impressions, and checking microphone behavior. The game's presentation and judges can still turn a private recording session into a structured performance.
Solo testing is also the fastest way to isolate a bad custom pack. If the default content works alone and a session fails only after a new pack is enabled, the problem is more likely in that add-on than in multiplayer setup.
Remote play is a workaround, not a built-in mode
The official page does not advertise online multiplayer or matchmaking. A remote group can use screen sharing, a voice call, and one person running the game, but audio can echo when the call captures both the participant and the game's playback.
Use headphones, mute the call during prompt playback when necessary, and let the host control the game. Do not describe that arrangement as native online multiplayer: save files, microphone input, and controls still live on the host computer.
| Setup | Advantages | Limitations |
|---|---|---|
| One computer in a room | Supported local flow and low latency | Players share hardware |
| Solo | Easy pack and microphone testing | No live group reactions |
| Screen-share workaround | Friends can watch remotely | Echo, latency, and host-only controls |
