Play Climb the Ladder on the Big Screen
Climb the Ladder turns a quiz into a game show the whole room plays together. Every question comes with four answers to choose from, so residents only need to spot the right one. If your residents love Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, they'll feel right at home.
Start a Game
- Open any quiz
- Click Play, then Climb the Ladder
- Click Let's play!
Climb the Ladder works best with quizzes where every answer is the same kind of thing, like capital cities, movie titles or famous singers. The other three choices come from the rest of the quiz, so a mixed general knowledge quiz would give the answer away. If a quiz won't work, the game tells you before you start.
How to Play
Choose together. Read the question aloud and let the room agree on A, B, C or D. Click their answer and it turns yellow. Changed their minds? Just click another one.
Lock it in. When everyone is happy, click Final answer. The right answer lights up green.
Every right answer takes the room up one rung. There are up to 10. Give a cheer at the starred ones.
Wrong answer? Nobody falls. The room stays where it is, loses one of its three lives and gets a new question. When the lives run out, the game ends on the rung you reached.
Stuck? Use a helper. Each one works once a game:
- 50:50 takes away two of the wrong answers
- Swap gives you a different question
- Ask a carer lets the staff in the room have a say before you choose
Handy for Hosts
To choose an answer press A, B, C or D. To lock it in press Space. For the next question press Space again.
Sound is on to start. Turn it off with the speaker button at the top.
Closed the game by accident? Open it again and click Carry on to pick up on the same rung.
The questions come up in a different order each time, with different wrong answers, so you can play the same quiz again.
