Hey there, Control fans and Twitch streamers! Are you ready to take your game streaming to the next level and totally hook your audience into the mysterious world of Control? The game already throws you into a universe filled with mind-bending supernatural experiences, and with StreamAlive's interactive features, you're set to create a wild and engaging ride that'll keep your viewers chatting, hyped, and hitting that follow button like crazy. Let's dive into exactly how you can do this!

Magic Maps Can Track Your Audience

The Oldest House in Control is a captivating location, right? Why not make your stream immersive by connecting with your viewers' locations using Magic Maps? While Jesse explores the twisting halls of the Oldest House, you can ask your audience where they're tuning in from. Maybe even tie it to the supernatural theme—"If you could join Jesse anywhere on earth to take down the Hiss, where would it be?" Watching those clusters pop up on the world map gets everyone involved and gives you a chance to shout out some places, creating a global community fighting alongside Jesse in the FBC.

Talk it Out with Open-Ended Opinion Polls

Have your community share their wildest Control theories using Open-Ended Opinion Polls. This is perfect for fueling discussion around the game’s plot and paranormal events. Ask them what their theory is about the Astral Plane or what they think happened in Ordinary, Maine. This kind of engagement sets a perfect vibe for a mystery-focused game like Control and keeps viewers coming back for more deep dives and discussions.

Rocking Real-Time Decisions with Live Polls

Want to know what aspect of Jesse’s powers your viewers are most excited about? Use Live Polls to tap into the mood of the room. As you stream, throw out a poll asking which of Jesse's powers they find most impressive or what they think might be the next best mission move. Real-time results keep the audience on their toes and help you steer the stream based on what the viewers are super hyped about.

Get Viewers Involved with the Spinner Wheel

Keeping your stream lively means keeping your chat active, and what better way than giving out some prizes or just making decisions fun with the Spinner Wheel? You can use it to randomly pick viewers who suggest cool strategies or share their wild theories about Control's universe. It makes every comment a potential winner, encouraging even the shy folks to chime in. Plus, it’s a neat way to reward chat engagement, increasing your chances of getting more Subs or Cheers from happy viewers.

Create a Buzz with a Word Cloud

As Jesse delves into the dusty corridors attacked by the Hiss, keep the chat buzzing with Word Clouds. This feature visualizes your audience’s thoughts and answers to questions like "What superpower would you love to use in the Oldest House?" or "What's the spookiest moment so far?" As common thoughts cluster and grow, your viewers get to see the pulse of the chat in vivid colors and size. You can steer conversations, give spotlight to unique ideas, or just soak up the hype as the crescendo of chat excitement grows bigger and brighter.

Let Choice Circle Choose the Way

Control itself is about navigating unpredictable terrains, so why not let your viewers decide some of the game or stream choices with Choice Circle? They'll feel way more involved when they're helping decide which Control Point you take on next or even which psychic power upgrade Jesse should rock. It livens up the stream and gives the audience ownership of your gameplay journey, turning passive viewers into active contributors.
