Buzzboard by WhirlPicker

Your classroom quiz show

Write the clues, name the teams, then play it full screen on the projector, with buzzers, a secret double-points clue and a winner's podium.

A free quiz game board maker for teachers

Buzzboard is a Jeopardy-style quiz game for the classroom. Make a board of categories and clues worth 100 to 600 points, split the class into teams, and play it full screen on a projector or smartboard. No sign-up, nothing to install, and your boards stay on your device.

How it works

  1. Name your game and your categories, right on the board.
  2. Tap a tile to write its clue and answer. Clues further down are worth more.
  3. Name your teams, then press Play.
  4. Teams pick a tile, answer, and you give or take away the points. The team with the most points takes the podium.

Questions teachers ask

Is Buzzboard free?

Yes. No ads, no accounts and nothing to install.

How many teams can play?

From two to eight. Each team has its own colour on the scoreboard.

What is the double-points clue?

One clue on every board is secretly worth twice as much. Nobody knows which until it's chosen.

Can I take points away for a wrong answer?

Yes. Each team has a minus button under the clue, and another team can still answer. There's an Undo button if you tap the wrong team.

Can I share a board with another teacher?

Yes. Share this board makes a link. Whoever opens it gets their own copy, ready to play.

Does it work with a keyboard or clicker?

Space shows the answer, the number keys give a team the points, Shift and a number takes them away, and Esc goes back to the board.
