About

Make It Meme is an indie browser party game^[1] where a group of players each write captions for a random meme template and then rate one another’s submissions; the player with the most votes wins the round. The title was created by German developers Sandro Wahl, Jakub Bilski, and Benjamin Reinecke and first launched in public Open Beta on March 15th, 2021.
It has been compared to other online party games such as Gartic Phone, but with a focus on meme creation and humor.
