You can write every question type on every plan, including Home. An audience vote you wrote plays from Starter. To host a pack with questions you wrote yourself, you need Pro or Business.
Pick the type in the question editor
In the pack builder, click Write a new question. The Question type row at the top shows every type. Click one, and the editor shows the fields of that type.
Play the pack to see each type on a phone
Click Use in game, then Start game. Teams join and answer on their phones. The next steps show what a phone looks like for each type.
Multiple choice: one tap
Multiple choice has one right answer. The phone shows the options, and the team taps one.
Pick several: tick and send
With Pick several, you tick every right answer in the editor. On the phone, the team ticks one or more options and then sends them. Teams can earn partial credit.
Majority wins: the popular pick scores
Majority wins has no right answer. The phone shows the options like a multiple-choice question. The answer that most teams picked scores.
Slider: guess a number
For a Slider, you type the Target value and pick a Scoring rule. On the phone, the team drags the slider or types a number, then taps Lock in answer.
Open-ended: type the answer
With Open-ended, the team types its answer on the phone and taps Submit answer. You mark every answer right or wrong on the control panel before you reveal.
Drawing: draw the answer
Turn on Let teams draw instead of typing on an open-ended question. The phone shows a canvas. The team draws, taps Submit drawing, and you mark the drawing on the control panel.
Tips
- Audience vote lets the crowd pick the answer live, so it has no right answer. It needs phones in the audience as well as the team phones.
- Name that tune plays a song clip, and teams pick the title. The wrong titles are picked for you.
- Fill in Expected answer on an open-ended question. You see it while you mark.
- Pick Easy, Medium or Hard under Difficulty before you save a question.
Questions
When does Pick several give partial credit?
In Everyone Scores and Wager rounds. In Buzzer Race, Fastest Finger and Knockout rounds, a team needs every right answer to score.
Does the speed bonus count on a slider or open-ended question?
No. A slider scores by how close the guess is, and an open-ended question by your marking. The speed bonus counts on multiple-choice answers only.
Can I change a question's type later?
Yes. Open the question in the pack builder and pick another type. The rest of the question stays.
