Trivia night ideas with a game show board

A good trivia night mixes easy wins and hard questions, team play and one round where anyone can shine. Here's a plan that does that.

How it works

Ready in about a minute

  1. 01

    Open LiveGameShow on a TV, a laptop or a projector, and pick a board. The screen shows a six-digit code and a QR code.

  2. 02

    Everyone scans the QR or types the code at FreeLiveGameShow.com, and their phone becomes a buzzer.

  3. 03

    You open the buzzers, the first phone answers, and the board keeps the score.
