How Near Enough plays

  1. A number question. Every phone gets the same question. How tall is the Big Pineapple?
  2. Set your guess. Turn your dial in secret, then back the guess on the number line you reckon is closest. Yours or anyone's.
  3. The answer drops. The real number lands on every phone. The closest guess wins, and backing it scores too.

Some of the questions

  • How tall is the Big Pineapple at Woombye, in metres?

  • How many keys are on a standard piano?

  • Roughly how long is the Great Barrier Reef, in kilometres?

  • How many hearts does an octopus have?

  • How many Earth days long is one year on Mars?

Family, Aussie as and Around the world questions, plus a grown-ups pack. Every answer is checked against a reliable source.

Your host

Hosted by Gail the Galah

In Near Enough, Gail is the site foreman. She reads out the job, checks every tape and stamps BANG ON when somebody nails it. Miles out gets a word about smoko.

She speaks from the TV, or from one phone if there is no TV, with her words on every screen. Played it before? Skip her intro and get straight in.

Questions about Near Enough

Do I need to know the answer?

No. Nobody knows these exactly. Closest wins, and backing someone else's guess scores too.

Can I lose points by backing a guess?

No. Backing a guess is a free pick, never a bet. Points never go down.

How many can play?

2 to 20, in the same room, each on their own phone.

Does everyone need to buy Party Pack 01?

No. Only the host buys the pack, once. Everyone they invite joins free with the room's QR code or code, signed in or as a guest, every time.

Do we need an app or a TV?

No. It runs in each phone's web browser. The host opens a party, everyone scans the code, and every phone is that player's own screen.

How much is it?

It comes in Party Pack 01, with all 10 games. The host pays once and the pack is theirs for good; the price for today shows on this page and at checkout.
