Question types

Five flavours, built for live events.

A trivia night should never feel like a Google Form. Mix any of these five question types in any round — every one of them is built for a live audience and a thumb.

01 — FREE TEXT

Free text, with forgiveness.

Players type the answer on their phone. Exact matches score automatically. Close answers - an honest typo, a near-enough spelling — are held for the host to approve or reject.

02 — MULTIPLE CHOICE

Tap one of four.

The crowd-pleaser. Up to four options; players lock in by tapping. When the host reveals, the correct answer appears on the viewer for the whole room to see.

03 — PIN A PLACE

Drop it on the map.

Geography rounds without the multiple choice. Players see a pannable map on their phone and drop a pin. Points scale with distance from the right answer — closer wins, no all-or-nothing.

04 — IN THE RANGE

How close can you get?

"When was the Battle of Hastings?" "How long is a standard ruler?" Players type their best guess. Points scale with how close you got — bonus points for an exact answer.

05 — STOP WHEN THEY SING

Stop when the singing starts.

The wild card. A song plays then fades out — but the timer keeps running. Players have to stop the timer when they think the singing would have started. The three closest to the real moment score points.

Mix and match. That's the whole point.

A round of text. A round of music. A geography round. Whatever the room is into.
