Ideas for using the wheel

  • Turn order, one at a time: more suspense than drawing numbers.
  • Who gets the final swap: spin instead of giving it to player 1.
  • Tiebreakers: if two people want the last gift, let the wheel decide.
  • Prize wheel: put gift numbers on the wheel instead of names.

For the full order in one go, use the number generator. Need the rules or some funny gift ideas? Remote crowd? Try the virtual game.

Frequently asked questions

How do you use a wheel for White Elephant?

Add every player's name and spin to choose who goes next. Remove each winner after their spin so the wheel works through the group in a random order.

Is the wheel fair?

Yes. Every name has an equal slice and an equal chance. The wheel always stops inside a slice, never on a line.
