Training game

Quiz Show

A Millionaire-style elimination quiz. Questions light up on the projector, everyone answers on their phone under one shared clock, a wrong answer costs a life - and the last players standing fight for the podium.

What is the Quiz Show game?

The trainer prepares a set of single-choice questions with four answers each, sets how long a question stays open and how many mistakes a player survives. Students join by QR code, pick a name and appear in the lobby - and from the first question the room turns into a TV studio: a navy stage, golden answer plates, a ticking clock and broadcast sounds.

One round is one question: it goes up on the wall and every phone shows the same four plates and the same countdown. A right answer keeps you exactly as you were; a wrong one - or silence - breaks a heart, and a player with no hearts left drops out with full game-show drama: an elimination screen, reveal effects, live ranking. The game ends on the podium, with the winner in the spotlight.

See how it works

One round: question, final answer, reveal

The question lights up on the projector and everyone locks in an answer on their phone before the clock runs out - at the reveal the right plate turns green, a wrong pick costs a heart and the standings reorder in front of the room.

Features

Key capabilities

  • Phones as answer buttons

    Students scan a QR code, type a name and are in - no accounts, no installs. Four big plates on every phone, one tap to lock the final answer.

  • One shared clock

    Every question runs on one countdown, synced to every screen - a refreshed phone does not get extra seconds. When time is up, answers close and the room waits for the reveal.

  • Lives and eliminations

    You decide how many mistakes a player survives - from sudden death to five lives. A wrong answer or silence breaks a heart; losing the last one means elimination, announced like on TV.

  • Live ranking and a podium

    Correct answers, lives in hand and answer speed rank everyone in real time - on the projector and on every phone. The finale builds the podium place by place, with the champion last.

  • AI drafts the questions

    Type a topic and let AI draft ready four-answer questions in your language - then edit, reorder or reject them one by one. Sample sets are there for a zero-preparation first game.

  • A TV studio on the projector

    A navy stage, golden lozenge plates, spotlight sweeps, reveal effects and sound - the projector screen looks like a broadcast, not a form. Drama included.

Step by step

How it works

  1. Create a question set

    Write single-choice questions with four answers each, or give AI a topic and edit its draft. Set the time per question and the number of lives.

  2. Open the lobby

    Start a session and put the QR code on the projector. Students scan it, pick a name and land in the roster - when everyone is in, hit start.

  3. Run the rounds

    Open a question, watch the answers come in under the shared clock, then reveal: a green plate, broken hearts, eliminations and a reshuffled ranking - you control the pace.

  4. Crown the champion

    When the questions run out or one player is left standing, the podium rises place by place - with sound and confetti.

Use cases

What it’s good for

  • A knowledge check after a training module that feels like a game, not a test.
  • An energizer after lunch - a short set of questions and the room is awake again.
  • Exam review at school - the class goes through the material without noticing they are revising.
  • Onboarding - new hires compete over products, values and who is who in the company.
  • A conference or webinar finale with prizes - the elimination format keeps the audience watching to the end.
  • A team event - play in teams sharing one phone and let the departments fight for the trophy.
