There are 2 main ways you can connect with your friends and / or family in-game.  

 

A - Normal Game

• You can create a room so that you and your friends can all play together in the same game.
• You can Invite your friend individually by using "Invite" button, or you can use "Invite All" button to invite all of your friends.
• Party hosts can kick uninvited players if they happen to enter the room.
• Play within a more competitive environment with other players filling in empty spaces (occasionally bots will also fill in these empty slots)
• Rewards are granted in ''Normal Game'' party mode (Crowns, EXP, Trophies, etc)

 

B - Custom Game

You can also choose to create a ''Custom Game'' which will present more customizable options but you won't earn any rewards in this game mode. 

 

Some of the custom game party characteristics are:

• Play in the desired Maps that you want
• Amount of players that will participate
• Choose to fill slots with AI (bots) or not
• In Custom Parties no Crowns or Trophies will be awarded
• Players will also not gain experience points
• If not invited, other players will not fill in the players slots
• If a player wins a custom game party, they will be greeted with a Joker's hat
• You can also conveniently adjust the abilities you’ll use in the match directly from the party.

Note: Currently some Team & Survivor maps are disabled in custom game party if there is only one player in the party (because they can't be played only by one player)
