Trivia Time

$ 50.00

Description

Show questions live on the big screen or over Zoom. Hundreds of players can use their phones to play along, top 20 scores show up on the leaderboard.

The game comes with over 200 questions built in, but it is easy to make new questions right inside the game, or import/export questions to share.

Customize the look, import questions, and the game calculates all the scores. This has to be the fastest, easiest, most fun way to play trivia.

LOAD QUESTIONS

Files are saved into the TriviaTime folder in the CrowdControlGames folder in your systems documents folder. Click "Open File" to quickly load a new set of questions. It takes less than 10 sec to load a new set.
PRO TIP: Use the "Quick Message" feature to announce the new questions and it will also distract the players while you are loading the new questions.

 

 

EDIT/PLAY - click Edit to import, export, create or edit questions. Files are saved as .tsv file so you can share with your friends.  The .tsv files do not like "returns", let the text auto wrap on its own, if you add a "return" you can break the file. To fix a broken .tsv file, open it in a text editor and look for the "return", delete them and save.

- Click Play to go back to the game

IN ORDER / RANDOM- use this to control how the questions are asked.

- "Random" - mix up the question order, so the game feels different every time.

- "In order" - questions will be in the same order they are in the edit screen list.

 

INTRO (HOST SCRIPT)

"You know what time it is... it's TRIVIA TIME!!! Thanks for playing along, this is going to be a lot of fun.

To play along you will need to go to CCG.BUZZ and enter the game code.

Our first round of questions will be 'general knowledge'. I will read the question then show the 4 possible answers, you will see all this on your phone.

You will have 10 sec to answer, the faster you answer the more points you get. But if you get it wrong... you will loose those points.

(Tip: If you are not sure about the answer wait until the time is almost up)

The player at the top of the leaderboard when time is up will be our winner!

Any Questions? Alright let's play! "

 

PRO - White Label - 

We have had many request to remove branding from CCG.BUZZ for our professional crowd. So here we go...

Game codes created by TriviaTimePRO will not have  the "CrowdControlGames.com" branding on the CCG.BUZZ pages. 

 

SCREEN

The "Screen" button at the top right of the control screen will turn the game screen on. If you have multiple displays connected it will also let you select which screen you want the game on. Windowed mode is a great way to play the game on a single screen if you want to practice.
