BellHop Studios

Your own character guessing game

A guessing game starring your characters, made for your fans and your stream. Players ask yes/no questions, rule characters out and name the hidden one. You bring the cast; we build, host and run the game.

Try it: guess the critter

One of these 26 critters is hidden. Tap a question to get a YES or NO, and the critters it rules out fade away. Tap a critter when you think you know.

Demo art: Noto Emoji by Google. Your game uses your own characters and art.

How it works

  1. Tell us about your cast

    How many characters, what the game is for, and when you'd like it.

  2. Send names and art

    We draft the questions and answers with you, so they match what your fans know.

  3. Play the test version

    Usually within one to two weeks. Tell us what to change.

Pricing

Pilot projects from $300

For up to 30 characters, plus $20 a month for hosting and updates. Bigger casts, stream mode and custom branding are quoted per project. We're taking a small number of pilot projects at this price.

Questions

Do we need to own the characters?

Yes. The characters and art must be yours, or you need permission to use them. We don't build games with other companies' characters.

Can it run on our own website?

Yes. We can host it on your domain, give you a link, or provide code to embed it in a page.

Can our chat play along on stream?

That's the stream mode add-on: viewers vote on which question to ask, and the streamer makes the final guess.

What if our cast changes?

Hosting includes small updates, like adding a new character or fixing an answer. Bigger changes are quoted separately.
