Who Wants to be a Big Giftor
Climb the diamond ladder, one question at a time
Category: Trivia · Players: single contestant + chat · Status: Beta
Who Wants to be a Big Giftor is in beta — details may change.
A Millionaire-style hot seat. One contestant — pulled from the !play queue and
picked by the streamer — climbs a 15-rung diamond ladder, answering one
multiple-choice question at a time. Every rung raises the prize; a wrong answer
drops back to the last safe rung. Lifelines, some classic and some gift-powered,
are there when a question stumps them.
Gameplay
Chatters type !play to join the queue; the streamer picks who sits in the
hot seat.
Each question locks in one answer, then reveals. Right climbs a rung; wrong drops to the last safe rung.
Keep going for a bigger prize, or walk away to bank the current rung before risking it.
How the ladder works
The prize grows with every rung, but so does the fall — until you pass a safe rung, which locks in a floor you can’t drop below.
- Fifteen rungs. The prize climbs from 100 diamonds to 1M across the ladder, one question per rung.
- Two safe rungs. Clear the 1k and 32k rungs and that prize is locked — a later wrong answer drops you to the safe rung below, never to zero.
- Walk away anytime. Stop before answering to keep the rung you’re on; a wrong answer instead of walking risks the drop.
Lifelines
Each classic lifeline can be used once: 50:50 (removes two wrong answers), Phone-a-Friend, and Ask the Audience (a chat poll). On top of those, gift-powered lifelines let the room intervene:
- Skip question — swap the current question for a fresh one at the same rung.
- Double down — raise the stakes on the current question.
- Insta-win — award the rung outright.

Layout
- Marquee — game title and how-to hint.
- Contestant — who’s currently in the hot seat.
- Question board — the prompt and the A / B / C / D options.
- Gift lifelines — the gift-triggered helps and the classic lifelines.
- Prize ladder — the 15 rungs, with the current rung and safe rungs marked.
- Queue — chatters waiting via
!play.
The game moves through Lobby → Question → Locked → Revealed → Finished, with detours into the audience poll and phone-a-friend when those lifelines are used.
Gifts
Who Wants to be a Big Giftor’s gifts power lifelines the room can trigger for the contestant:
- Skip question swaps the current question for another at the same rung.
- Double down raises the stakes on the current question.
- Insta-win awards the current rung outright.
They’re off unless the host maps them, and they put the chat in the game — the contestant answers, but the room can rescue or gamble on their behalf.
Scoring
- The contestant’s result is the rung they bank: climb to the top for the full 1M, walk away to keep the current rung, or fall to the last safe rung on a wrong answer.
- Because there’s one contestant per game, this is a hot-seat spotlight rather than a chat-wide leaderboard — the payoff is how high the room can push their champion.
- Wins are tracked per streamer and feed the same leaderboard tiers as the rest of the library.
