Play Quiz Board on the Big Screen
Use Quiz Board to turn any quiz into a game show. Residents play in teams, pick their own questions from the board and try to win the most points. If your residents love Jeopardy, they'll feel right at home.
Start a Game
- Open any quiz with 10 or more questions
- Click Play, then Quiz Board
- Choose None to play as one group, or 2, 3 or 4 teams and give them names
- Click Let's play!
The board has up to 25 squares. If your quiz is longer, you get a different mix each time.
How to Play
Pick a square. The team whose turn it is calls a letter and a number, like "B for 300". Click that square to open the question. Bigger numbers win more points.
Answer together. Let the team talk it over and call out their answer. Not sure, or not quite right? Another team can have a go before you show the answer.
Show the answer, then say who got it. Click Show answer, then click the team that got it. The team that picked the square is first. If another team got it, they win the points. If nobody got it, click Nobody. Nobody ever loses points.
Teams take turns picking, whether they were right or not, so everyone gets a fair go.
Look out for Double points. Up to two squares on each board are worth double, and nobody knows which.
Handy for Hosts
On a keyboard, type the letter then the row to open a square (B then 3 opens "B for 300"). Press the space bar to show the answer, then a team's number to give them the points, or 0 for Nobody.
Clicked the wrong square? Back to the board puts it back, as long as the answer hasn't been shown. A Double points square can't be put back, so the surprise stays a surprise.
Gave the points to the wrong team? Undo last square, under the board, puts the last square back and takes the points off again.
Some answers come with a long story. If the story fades out at the bottom of the card, scroll the card to read the rest.
Running out of time? Finish the game, under the board, takes you straight to the scores.
Sound is on to start. Turn it off with the speaker button at the top.
Playing with one group instead of teams? Choose None next to Teams and everyone plays together to see how many points they can win. You'll see We got it and Not quite instead of team names.
