The surprise stays sealed until the press. You can run it up to three times a night. The full description from the games team A stage moment for the night’s big surprise. Guests scan a QR, pick their table and press one red button together; presses fill a meter on the big screen, the glass lifts at 90 % and the press that crosses 100 % fires the surprise the host staged in advance (confetti, an announcement, a cue for the AV desk), crediting that table out loud. The surprise stays sealed until the press, and cannot fire until the host has approved it with AV. ## Ready-made versions by occasion Each version comes with its own story, wording and look.

Pops stands by the button with his finger hovering and says jeete raho; Robbie has the surprise loaded and will not say what it is. Raj, Simran, Bauji and the rest are an illustrated sample cast, not real people. At your event the same game carries your own names and photos. ## Formats it runs - **The Big Red Button.** Every phone shows one red button.
