TruffleGrid
A real-time social fantasy game for football watch parties where fans compete to spot and claim rare statistical 'truffles'—unexpected performance moments like a backup tight end's first touchdown or a quarterback rushing for exactly 17 yards. Turns passive viewing into an active hunt, making every play matter.
The Wow Moment
You're at a watch party and suddenly everyone's phones buzz—the game has just identified a 'Black Truffle' moment (1 in 10,000 occurrence). Three friends simultaneously shout 'I saw it first!' and dive for their phones to claim it. The room erupts as the app reveals who won the rarest truffle of the season.
