Fun Cam Activities to Engage Fans

Fun Cam Activities to Engage Fans

When it comes to becoming a cam star, being seen on cam is only step 1. In order to stand out, you need to bring creativity into your shows and generate fun moments during you broadcast. As a cam performer, there are days when we aren’t sure about what to do and tend to get stuck with the same type of routine show. In this article, I discuss some fun and cheeky ideas to get viewers excited during your next broadcast.

One of the best ways to break the ice when connecting with new viewers and gaining new fans is to play games and have special activities that can bring more viewers into your room, increase chat conversations and generate excitement:

Your viewers want to see more than just a body and a toy — they can get that anywhere.

Balloon Butt Pop

Coming up with ideas for games to play with your viewers that don’t cost large amounts of money can definitely pay off. Games like “Balloon Butt Pop” will have your viewers (and you) laughing out loud. The idea behind this game is to have your viewers tip you to write their username on a balloon — then you sit on the balloon and pop it with your butt. If you don’t love the thought of a loud balloon pop, don’t worry, because there are tons more fun games to play with your fans!

Peel and Reveal

Almost everyone has an old Twister board game lying around somewhere, so put it to use on cam by playing “Peel and Reveal.” Hang the Twister board on your wall for your viewers to see and have them tip to spin the wheel to play your game. Place numbered post-it notes on each dot with different actions  written on the back as prizes ... if you want a little extra bang, you could replace the post-it notes with balloons!

Solo & Couple's Strip Dice

Another classic game to play on cam is “Strip Dice.” The point of this game is obviously to get naked, but there is a wild card to this one: Viewers tip to reveal post-it notes with different pieces of clothing for you to take off or actions to perform (remove stockings, take off pants, flash, etc.) — but here’s where the twist comes in … on one of the post-it notes is the hated “Get Dressed” action!

If you happen to be camming with a significant other or a friend, which is a great way to engage viewers, add a game such as “Couple’s Strip Dice” and your room will really come to life! This one is fun for viewers because they just roll the dice and enjoy the show. Novelty dice from a local sex shop or regular dice can both work for this game.

So, you’ve tried the games but want to add even more creativity to your shows! There are many more ways to get a little crazy and have even more fun with your viewers while camming. Bringing in role play, body painting and the world of fetish are all great ways to grow your fan base and learn more about what your fans love to see!

Body Painting

Lingerie is great fun, but sometimes it can get repetitive and boring, so if you love art, then body painting is a great way to create a unique outfit to mesmerize your viewers with. Make sure to use non-toxic paint (which can be purchased at a local dollar store) and don’t be scared to have fun and get messy!

Role-playing

Being a performer means you have the ability to bring your own fantasies (and those of your viewers) to life, whether it’s a French maid, naughty librarian, pizza delivery guy or an alien you dreamed up from another dimension, you are in total control of how things play out — which may be why roleplaying is so popular!

If you want to give this a try but don’t have time to get an outfit ready, being a naughty college student experimenting with sex is a very popular roleplay and you don’t need to get dressed up in anything too crazy. Be confident and get into that sweet and innocent character role!

Fetishes

If it exists, then you better believe there’s a porn version of it! Camming is all about sexual discovery — and being open to it means you have an endless supply of things to try on cam. Your viewers will have some fetishes of their own they would love to try with you too. If you are new to the world of fetishes, there are a lot to be discovered and you might even find a fetish that you love partaking in!

  • Dirty Talk - The brain is the largest sex organ and the best way to stimulate it is by talking dirty and telling it what to do. This won’t cost you a thing and you can get as creative as you would like by creating scenarios and storylines! This can range from talking about your own sexual adventures to talking about your ultimate sexual fantasy. You don’t have to be a total sex pot to be great at talking dirty either, being a bit shy or awkward is a total turn on too and can work in your favor.
  • Food Porn - It doesn’t have to always be chocolate sauce or whipped cream, but those are definitely great options! Start off with something simple and put it on your body to get them excited for this messy fetish. As you go, you can get more exotic with what you put on your body and add more, and more, and more … using exotic fruits or even doing a baking show and ending it off a bit messy will be sure to get viewers excited!
  • Tights & Nylons - Nylons and stockings are incredibly sexy because they caress every curve on the body, you can almost feel the sensation on your own skin just looking at someone wearing them. This fetish is not limited to women wearing nylons either, men love seeing other men wearing nylons as well, they may even want to slip on a pair themselves. This is an easy fetish to start with and a pair of nylons won’t break the bank!
  • Get Wild - This fetish is pure whimsical fantasy where you step outside of your species to dress up as another — a “furry.” This is not about animals … it’s about being an animal and tapping into your instinctual desires. The furry group has its own customs and language and there’s a world of discoveries to be made. “Yiff” means sex, “yiffy” means horny or sexual, and “yiffing” means mating. “Fur pile” denotes a bunch of furries lying on top of one another, affectionately, while skritching (scratching the back, neck or between the ears). “Spooge” is semen — a possible outcome of a fur pile. A “furvert” is anyone who is sexually attracted to mascots and such.
  • Do You Even Lift Bro? - Muscle worship is a new take on the dom/sub relationship, where instead of the sub licking your shoes, they are now rubbing sore muscles from the gym. Your submissive looks at you as a superior being and is eager to please and serve you. Everyone has different limits on how far they want to take this fantasy, so just be a good listener and enjoy the love. If you take pride in your grueling workouts at the gym, this may be a great way to spice up your shows!

Camming is all about real people in real time. Your viewers want to see more than just a body and a toy — they can get that anywhere. Integrating creative games, special shows and fetishes will leave your viewers wanting to see more. Be confident and use these creative techniques to showcase your personality … that is the cornerstone to successful camming!
