In short

For games in Telegram, start with @MiniGamesInChatBot: nine games (minesweeper, 2048, sudoku, snake and more) open right inside a message, and tic-tac-toe, four in a row and rock-paper-scissors for two work in any chat. For a whole group, add @ChatGamesForGroupsBot — charades, duels, a daily pick and a leaderboard — and for friends, @HowWellKnowMeQuizBot makes a quiz about you. Telegram has a few games of its own too: the 🎲 dice emoji, @QuizBot for quizzes and the demo games in @GameBot. All three bots above are free bots from the HandyBots family, made by us.
