Quiz Board
Team trivia gameAnswer questions correctly and finish the quiz with the highest team score.
How to play
- Form two to eight teams and choose a host. Name your teams and select five of twenty categories. The board has 20 tiles: four questions per category, worth 100, 200, 300 and 500 points. Higher values are intended to be harder.
- Teams take turns choosing a tile. The choosing team answers aloud first; if they do not know, the next team may try. There is no typing and no time limit. The host selects Reveal answer to check the response.
- Award the tile value to the team that answered correctly. Nobody knows reveals the answer and closes the question without points. Wrong answers do not subtract points. A mistaken award can be changed before selecting Back to board.
- The choosing team alternates after every question, regardless of who scores. Complete all 20 tiles or use End match to finish early. The highest score wins. Progress and shown-question history save in this browser; old questions return only after an explicit history reset.
- Use one phone or tablet for all teams and a host. Enter team names, choose five categories and tap Start match. Fullscreen gives your shared board more room.
- Tap a points tile and answer aloud. The host taps Reveal answer, then the correct team. Nobody knows reveals and closes the question without awarding points.
- Tap Back to board for the next team to choose. You can change an award before leaving the question. Your match and seen-question history are stored in this browser when storage is available.

A little more about the game
Quiz Board is a free host-led browser trivia game for friends, families and team gatherings. Two to eight teams share one screen and choose questions from a colourful category board. A bank of 2,000 original English questions covers 20 categories, including numbers, language, science, animals, geography, space, food, music, stories, sport, chemistry, plants, the human body, history, art, technology, Earth science, architecture, discoveries and games. Each category contains 25 questions at each of the four point values. Each match uses five categories and four values from 100 to 500 points. Players speak their answers, and the host reveals the answer and controls scoring, so spelling never gets in the way. Includes a no-points option, correction of the current award, early match completion, light and dark themes, and local saves. Previously shown questions are excluded from fresh boards until question history is explicitly reset. No download, account, timer or separate phone connection is required.
