During this “Jeopardy”-type game, a team that has correctly answered a question has the option of taking away cash from other teams, giving it to an allied team, adding it to their own score, or going “double-or-nothing.”  Allows for two to six teams.

ACADEMIC FOOTBALL--Divide the class to play football using your LCD projector. Students answer your questions to advance the ball and score touchdowns.PYRAMID--Students answer teacher-made questions to be the first to ascend the pyramid of success.

Academic Football

Two teams battle it out to gain yardage and score by answering your questions created in the Game Show Wizard.  If the offensive team answers correctly, the play chosen (of 25) has a much greater chance of resulting in gained yardage.  But the defense has a chance with every question to disrupt the play.

Pyramid

Watch your students or colleagues use mimes, ninjas, spacemen, and all sorts of wacky characters to be the first to scale the Pyramid of Success in a kind of abstract, post-modern setting.  Great for both corporate and classroom settings, it’s King of the Hill with a number of twists.

Moon Mogul

Have your players compete for mining interests on the moons of Jupiter.  A team wins by gaining resources, by taking over all the properties on the board, or by bankrupting all the other teams.  Games can also be saved and continued later. 

TOX--2 or 3 team tic tac toe. A team places a mark on one of the many boards only after corectly answering a question.

TOX

Appropriate for school or business environments, teams or individual players attempt to capture the most tic-tac-toe boards by taking turns placing their mark for each answer correct.  Up to three teams or players can play against each other.  Up to seven boards can be played at the same time.

Choose a category and an opponent use questions to attack. Last team standing (or hobbling) wins in Fadeout.

Fadeout

A team is represented on the screen as a cartoon character.  When a team answers a question correctly, that team chooses which one of the other teams’ characters will lose a body part.  It’s competitive Hangman, but in reverse.  The last team left standing (or hobbling) wins.

Cubicles

In this delightfully challenging game, players or teams answer a battery of questions in order to increase the likelihood that they will complete the maze that follows.  For each correctly answered question, seconds are added. 

CUBICLES--More correctly answered questions gives a team's rat more time in the maze.Lower 48--students answer questions to take over territories from other players.

Lower 48

Students learn the states while battling against other teams and answering your questions.  You can have your players defend and attack capitols for the win or completely blanket the map with their territories.  Up to five sets of game questions (50 questions each) can be used during a single game.

KLOWN

Up to 12 teams of students compete against each other try to stop the building of Binky, the evil space klown, from taking over the world.  How do you stop such a creature? By playing a kind of hangman, of course.  Hey, it could happen.  Oh yes, indeed.

Aristotle

Teams drag words and concepts to their categories. Up to 12 Teams can play against each other or with each other to get the highest percentage possible for the whole class—or both—allowing you to take it for a grade if you want.

Concentration

Players flip the cards over trying to remember the and their matching definitions, concepts and their categories, etc.  If it’s events and their dates, match ‘em up!  If it’s species and kingdoms, categorize ‘em!  Up to 12 teams against each other or the  class vs. the clock.

Matchismo

Up to 12 teams drag words to their matching meanings.  They can either take turns dragging as many as they can in a limited time period, or two teams can play Battle rounds with a student positioned at each side of the board.

Using matching or categorizing questions, have your students use their knowledge and dexterity to score runs for their teams.  Batters attempt to choose the correct answer as the ball crosses the plate, earning outs for incorrect answers.  Up to 12 Teams can play against each other or the class can play solo.

Battle for Europe

Take over Europe!  Up to 5 teams battle for nations, learning your subject matter—and the geographical arrangement of the European states.  Fast-paced, easy to play, very engaging.

Veinte (20)

Simple, straight-forward learning, Veinte gives the win to the first team to answer 20 questions correctly.  The questions can be matched or categorized, and can either be identical for each team or randomized.  Here’s a great way to get students focused even when it isn’t their turn to play since their success depends upon learning the answers from other teams’ attempts.
