Questions
Do the judges decide, or the fans?
The judges. That makes Drag Race a show where reading the runway pays off: the strongest queens often go far.
What if I've never watched Drag Race?
You can still play. Pick on a hunch, and every scoring line has a plain explanation of what it means.
Is it free?
Yes. No money on the line, ever: points are just for bragging rights.
Will it spoil episodes I haven't watched?
No. Notifications never say who went home, and if you watch later, your league's results wait until you tap to see them.
Can I join after the season starts?
Yes. A weekly league can be joined any week of the season.
Is this the official RuPaul's Drag Race game?
No. Reality Royale is a fan-made game, not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by RuPaul's Drag Race, its network or its producers.
