Set it up

The settings hold your questions, one per line: the question, then the answers separated by bars, with a star in front of exactly three right ones. Add any wrong answers you like.

Choose the points for the first, second and third answer, the bonus for finding all three, the question timer, and how long a player has to choose.

The Sounds tab picks the sound effect for each moment of the game.

The question and the answers

The question goes up on the TV with all the answers, right and wrong, and the same list appears on every phone. Every guest has a Buzz in button.

Right answers are claimed

A right pick claims that answer for the guest, and their name goes beside it. A wrong pick knocks the guest out of that question. Each guest gets one answer per question.

All three found
