Playing alone can be pretty lonely, so why not invite some friends to join? The main benefit of Gamble With Your Friends is that it really puts your friendships to the test. When everyone puts their money into the pot, things can go wrong if some friends are more willing to spend than others.
Although the game is best enjoyed with a group, you can play it by yourself if you want. Still, it’s much more fun with friends. Here’s what you need to know about inviting friends and making the most of the multiplayer experience in Gamble With Your Friends.
### How to Invite Friends
There’s no way to invite friends directly while you’re waiting in the lobby. Instead, you need to have your friends join your game through Steam. The player with the best internet connection should be the host to keep things running smoothly. The host creates a new game and sets the privacy to “Friends Only” so others can join.
If friends can’t join the lobby, double-check your Steam settings and in-game settings to make sure everything is set correctly. Your friends can then click on your Steam profile and select “Join Game.” This will bring them directly into the lobby, where everyone starts inside a cardboard box. To escape the box, press E.
Once out, customize your character, plan your next casino run, or explore the lobby. Before entering the casino, the lobby offers various activities for your group to enjoy.
### Activities in the Lobby
– Relax in the hot tub: double jump to jump inside.
– Play basketball: press E to pick up the ball, aim with your mouse, then click and hold to shoot.
– Play chess or checkers: you’ll need to remove the chess pieces manually if you want to switch to checkers.
– Complete the obstacle course: find this behind the item trailer.
– Buy new cosmetics: spend your tickets wisely, as you only have limited amounts.
– Change your outfit: flip through unlocked items in the wardrobe.
– Find plushies: scattered around the lobby, each makes a sound.
– Buy items for your next run: these also cost tickets, so purchase them before cosmetics.
### Coordinating Your Play
Use this time to chat and plan how the next game will go. Remember, everyone shares one pot of money. If any player spends carelessly, the group could blow their budget or even end their run early.
It’s smart to assign one experienced or responsible team member as the treasurer. This person should have the final say on spending, help set budgets, and warn the team when bets need to be held back. With good organization and some luck, your group should enjoy smooth runs. Otherwise, you risk facing consequences from the boss.
