Private games is a feature that a player won’t have acces to by default. You can get access by:

• Linking your Discord account with your Minecraft account (#link-help) and executing /requestprivategames on Discord.
  • This command will give you access if you have played multiplayer for more than 3 hours and have played at least 15 multiplayer games. This is just a verification to filter out bad actors, as private games are quite heavy on the server.
• Having partner rank. Read more about partner rank in #partner-rank on Discord

Private game features

Private games allow for games to be private (duh), but they also have some features:

• Up to 16 players in a normal private game, instead of 8
• Only the owner can change game settings
• The owner can start the game when they want to. There is no automatic timer.

Creating a private game

There’s two types of private games, public games, and restricted games. Public games are joinable using /jp <game owner's username> , and restricted games are only joinable via the code that the game owner gets.

Creating a public private game: /privategame create

Creating a restricted private game: /privategame create restricted

Custom private games

Private games are normal games by default, with the exception that only the game’s owner can vote. You can also create fully custom private games, where you can choose your own card, set game rules, give effects and more. You can do this at https://privategames.bingomc.net. This requires your Minecraft account to be linked to your Discord account. Custom private games are always restricted. Here’s a screenshot which shows some custom private game options.

Starting a private game

The owner of the private game always gets a lever. Right clicking that lever will start the game.
