Why This Wheel?

This Video games wheel solves the problem of choice paralysis that comes with having hundreds of games available. When you try to pick a game yourself, you always gravitate toward the same familiar titles. The random video game picker forces you to explore different genres and discover games you might never have chosen otherwise. Plus, everyone sees the spin happen, so there's no question about fairness when choosing with others.

Breaks Gaming Ruts

Each video game has an equal chance of being selected, so you explore games beyond your usual favorites.

Fair Group Decisions

Everyone sees the random pick happen, so there's no arguing about what game to play when choosing with others.

Backlog Management

The random selection helps you finally play games you've owned but never started.

Fun Fact

The average video game player owns over 100 games but only regularly plays about 5-10 of them. Despite having massive backlogs, most gamers get stuck in loops playing the same familiar titles. Random game selection helps break these patterns and leads to discovering forgotten gems in personal collections.

By The Numbers

The global video game industry generates over $180 billion annually, surpassing both the film and music industries combined. There are over 200,000 video games available across all platforms worldwide. The average gamer spends about 8 hours per week playing video games, with mobile gaming accounting for 51% of the market.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is each video game equally likely to be picked?

Yes, it's truly random. Each video game on the wheel has an equal chance of being selected. The algorithm uses proper randomization, so you get fair results every time. Everyone can see the spin happen, so there's no question about whether it's fair.

What video games are included in the default list?

The wheel comes pre-loaded with popular video games from different genres like Minecraft, Fortnite, Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto, The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario, Pokemon, FIFA, NBA 2K, Assassin's Creed, Red Dead Redemption, Elden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, The Witcher, and Among Us. You can customize it to include any video games you want.

Can I use this for streaming?

Absolutely. Many streamers use this Video games wheel to randomly select what game to play during their streams. The visual spin builds excitement and lets viewers participate in the decision-making process. It's a great way to discover new games and keep streams unpredictable.

How do I handle large backlogs?

Create themed wheels for different types of games (single-player, co-op, quick sessions, long-term projects). You can also remove games after playing them to keep the wheel focused on your current interests. Start with smaller lists of 10-20 games if you have hundreds.

What if I don't want to play the selected game?

You can set your own rules - some people allow one reroll, others commit to whatever comes up. The key is consistency. If you allow rerolls too often, you lose the benefit of the random selection. Consider it an opportunity to try something new!

Can I use this for speedrunning or challenges?

Yes, that's a great use! Many speedrunners and gaming content creators use this video game picker to randomly select games for challenges, speedruns, or review series. It forces them to try games outside their expertise and creates more diverse content.
