The format

A Family Feud Style Game, Rebuilt for the Browser

The survey-board format, minus the studio, the licence and the setup.

Pick a nickname, share a code, and the board deals itself. Free, no download, 2–6 players.

The format, kept

  • A survey prompt everyone can answer instantly.
  • A hidden board of ranked answers.
  • Points weighted by how popular each answer is.
  • Turns, a clock and a scoreboard that updates live.
  • A recap between rounds and a podium at the end.

The bits we changed

Nobody has to host. There's no reading answers off a card, no arguing about whether “fridge” and “refrigerator” count as the same thing — fuzzy matching handles it — and no manual scorekeeping.

We also swapped strikes-and-steals for a per-player guess limit, which keeps every player involved in every round instead of one team owning the board.

Independent, not affiliated

Survey Smash is its own game with its own questions, artwork and branding. It has no affiliation with Family Feud or any television production.

Frequently asked questions

What is Survey Smash?

Survey Smash is a free multiplayer survey game. You get a survey-style prompt like “Name something people do before bed”, and you score points by guessing the answers most people gave. The more popular your answer, the more points it's worth.

How does scoring work?

Each answer on the board is worth points based on how many people gave it. Guess the number one answer and you take the biggest score; near-misses and typos still count thanks to fuzzy matching.

How many people can play?

2–6 players. One person creates a game, everyone else joins with the room code. You can also play solo against the bots.

How long does a game take?

You choose 3–10 rounds per game, with 30 seconds per turn, so a five-round game usually runs 15–20 minutes.
