Training game
Tower Quiz
A playable tower-defence quiz. Enemies drawn in 3D march on the tower from four sides, each carrying a question. A correct answer fires the cannon and blows the enemy up; a wrong one lets it reach the wall. Every participant defends their own tower on their phone while the trainer watches the wall of everybody's towers on the projector.
What is the Tower Quiz game?
The trainer prepares a set of single-choice questions with four answers (or imports them from a Quiz Show set or a quiz, or has AI draft them), sets the defence time, the enemies' pace and the tower's hit points. Participants join by QR code, type a name and are on the walls at once: the cannon locks onto the nearest enemy by itself and the deck shows its question.
A right answer is a shot, a flying shell and a burst of shards. A wrong one is a shield, an enraged enemy and the correct answer shown for a moment, because the game is there to teach, not only to score. An enemy that reaches the wall starts knocking the tower down but can still be shot. Waves grow without end, and whoever outlasts the countdown wins: a final salvo, fireworks and a podium on the wall of towers.

Features
Key capabilities
The answer is the shot
The cannon tracks the nearest enemy and you answer its question. Right: a shell, an explosion, points and a streak. Wrong: the enemy deflects the shell with a shield, speeds up and gets a new question, so guessing never works.
Win by outlasting the countdown
The trainer sets a defence time from 1 to 10 minutes. Waves keep growing, so the tension rises to the last ten seconds, and when the clock hits zero the cannon fires its final salvo.
Vector 3D and explosions
The tower, four kinds of enemies, shells, shard explosions, shock waves, smoke and sparks, and at the end either the tower collapsing or fireworks and confetti. All drawn in the browser, nothing to install.
Everyone defends their own tower
Participants scan a QR code and play on their phones, portrait or landscape. A refreshed phone resumes the defence from the start of its current wave, so nobody drops out.
A wall of towers on the projector
The trainer sees every tower live: hit points, wave, time, kills and accuracy, and after the game the questions the room found hardest, with a CSV export.
Questions from AI or from what you have
Give a topic or a document and AI writes the questions in your language. Already have a Quiz Show set or a quiz? Import it with one click.
Step by step
How it works
Prepare a question set
Write single-choice questions with four answers, import them or ask AI. Set the defence time, the pace and the tower's hit points, then try the set yourself.
Open a run
Start a session and show the QR code on the projector. Participants scan it, type a name and start their own defence at once.
Watch the wall of towers
Every tower on the projector shows hit points, wave, time and accuracy live. You see who is defending, who has already won and whose tower fell.
Debrief the hard questions
After the game you get the ranking and the list of the questions the whole room missed most. Ready material for the debrief.
Use cases
What it’s good for
- Revision before a test that looks like a game, not a test.
- An energizer after the break: three minutes of defence and the room is alive again.
- A knowledge check after a training module with instant feedback for everyone.
- Onboarding: questions about products, procedures and company values in a form new hires remember.
- Homework in a course: a participant defends the tower at their own pace and the trainer sees the results.
- A tournament between teams: the same defence, one ranking, a podium on the projector.
