📝 Creating the quiz​

When building a quiz for a conference booth, keep in mind that some players may stick around for multiple games.
To keep things fresh, make sure you have plenty of questions — enough to randomize and make each playthrough unique.

Recommended setup:

  • 15 questions split into 3 rounds
  • Create at least 3× that many questions for variety — more is better!

🎲 Step-by-step quiz creation​

  1. Choose “Quiz” in the Create menu and give your quiz a name. Set the correct language.
  2. Add 3 rounds and name them (for example: Round 1, Round 2, Round 3).
  3. In the Round settings (cog icon), enable “Only show x questions” and set the number to 5.
    Also enable “Random question order” — otherwise the game will always pick the first 5 questions.
    Repeat for each round.

    You can write questions or use the Import button to quickly add content from Excel.
tip

Use lots of images and video clips — they make the game much more entertaining!

🔀 How random selection works​

Each time the quiz runs, QuizWitz will select 5 random questions from each round. The system will distribute questions fairly so repeats are minimized.

🚀 Launch the quiz​

The fastest way to launch your conference quiz:

  1. Click Play quiz.
  2. Select Start Conference Mode.

In this mode, players use their phones to connect to the game link on the main screen.
When everyone is ready, the booth host presses Enter — and the game runs automatically.
After the game ends, pressing Enter brings you right back to the connection screen for the next group.

⚙️ Advanced game options​

Want more control?
Choose Advanced game options and select Conference mode in the mode selector.
You’ll get a unique link with all your chosen options.

  • Ask players’ email:
    Collect visitor emails for your booth! If you enable this, be sure to also set your Privacy Policy URL.
  • When launching a game via the advanced options link, you may be prompted to log in before starting — this checks your content and licenses.
