Only one  tv remote can work for games . You'll need to use yours and your family and friends's iOS devices running a (likely updated version of) the Remote app, or better still—made for iOS devices (MFi) game controllers.

If you're also connected to a bluetooth speaker/headphones then you can only connect one controller, otherwise you can use up to 4.
