Show emojis that represent a movie, game, song, or TV show. First to type the correct answer wins. Streaks, speed bonuses, and a live leaderboard. 100+ built-in puzzles.
Type your guess directly into chat - just like your viewers do on stream.
Everything runs automatically once the browser source is added to OBS.
Emojis only at the start. A first-letter hint drops partway through. Category hint follows. Full reveal if nobody answers in time.
Chat builds win streaks across rounds. The current streak leader is shown live on the overlay so everyone knows who's on a roll.
Answer quickly before the first hint drops and the overlay celebrates with a Speed Bonus badge.
A live leaderboard shows after every round displaying the top winners. Resets automatically every 24 hours.
When the timer runs out with no correct answer, the overlay plays a reveal animation and shows what the answer was.
Puzzles cycle automatically. No commands or manual triggering needed - just add the browser source and it runs itself.
One browser source is all it takes.
Select your platform and enter your channel name to generate the overlay URL:

Choose which puzzles are used for the game:
Create a new Browser Source and paste the URL above.
The overlay starts automatically and keeps cycling through puzzles on its own. No commands, no configuration.
Running Pogly instead of a plain browser source? Import the widget directly.
Pogly is a browser-based overlay editor. Import the JSON below to add Emoji Decoder as a 640×420 widget layer. After import, update the channel variable to your Twitch channel name.
If you entered your channel name in the setup step above, it will already be pre-filled in the import.
No setup needed for viewers - just type in chat.
Tip: Answers are matched case-insensitively with punctuation stripped, so the lion king, Lion King, and THE LION KING! all count as correct.
No - chat commands won't register on an offline channel. The game requires your stream to be live so viewers can type in chat.
Each round lasts 30 seconds. There is also a short grace period after the timer ends where answers are still accepted to account for stream delay.
Movies, TV shows, video games, songs, and general word puzzles covering animals, food, places, and everyday concepts. The pool has over 160 puzzles and grows regularly.
The leaderboard resets automatically every 24 hours.
