Who Can Launch Games in Slack?
The answer is both yes and no—it depends on the game type. All team members can start and play instant social games like Chess, Battleship, and Checkers. However, only workspace admins have permission to schedule games such as puzzle games and predictors, allowing them to be played in Slack channels at specific times.
This approach provides flexibility, enabling employees to play freely while allowing admins to organize structured gaming events for better team engagement.
How to Launch a Game in Slack?
Once GUUL is integrated with your Slack workspace, there are several ways to start a game:
- Use Commands in Slack – Quickly launch games in team channels or direct messages using Slack commands.
- Go to the Tournament Games Section – Explore available games, choose your favorite, and invite teammates to play.
- Schedule Workspace-Wide Games – Admins can organize puzzle games (Find The Word, Mathle, Sudoku) or predictor games, setting them up in advance for the whole team.
With these options, games remain easily accessible, whether you’re looking for a quick match or planning a team-wide event.
