What is Planchette Online?
Planchette Online is a free web-based Ouija board experience that allows users to have a simulated séance without needing to purchase a physical Ouija board. Users simply visit the Planchette Online website and are greeted with a realistic 3D rendering of a classic Ouija board on a wooden table.
To start a session, users can either create a private room and invite friends to join via sending them a room code, or they can enter a public room and be matched with random strangers. Once all participants have joined, everyone places their cursor over the planchette piece on the board. As users lightly rest their hands on their cursor, the planchette will begin to seemingly move on its own around the board.
In actuality, the planchette moves based on the combined input and subtle movements from all users' cursors. This creates the illusion that some external force is guiding the planchette to spell out messages. Users can ask questions and see what messages are spelled out letter-by-letter.
Planchette Online tries to recapture the nostalgic mystery and intrigue of gathering around a Ouija board with friends. Its realistic graphics and fluid planchette movement aims to send tingles down users' spines as they watch the piece glide around to reveal hidden messages.
