About Play Salad Bowl
A free online party game — no sign-up, no downloads, just pure Salad Bowl fun.
Why This Site Exists
I love party games. Salad Bowl (or Fishbowl, as some call it) has been a staple at gatherings with my friends for years. But every time we played, the same friction came up: someone had to bring paper and pens, someone had to write the words, someone had to keep time, and at the end, the paper slips were thrown away.
So I built a digital version. Phones as controllers, TV as the screen, built-in timer, no paper, no cleanup. Same classic 3-round format (describe with words, one word only, act it out) — just without the overhead.
Who Built It
My name is An You. I am an independent developer and hardware integration engineer. I build web tools and games that are free, fast, and require no sign-up.
Other projects I have built:
- GeoDrawer — Draw country outlines from memory, scored against real borders. 143 countries.
- 38-0-0 Football Draft — Build your dream XI and simulate a full 38-match season.
- Strands Game Online — Free unlimited word search puzzles.
- Brand AI Visibility — Check how your brand appears in ChatGPT and other AI models.
You can find my code on GitHub.
The Philosophy
- No sign-up. If the game can work without an account, it should.
- No data collection. I do not track users or store personal information.
- Free. The hosting costs are low enough that the game stays free for everyone.
- Works everywhere. Desktop, tablet, mobile, TV — open the page and play.
