What was this game?

[Thisismyusernamefornow]

I was on a train recently and a group of students were all playing a game together on their mobile phones and they were all linked. They all got the same questions and had to give their answers on the phone, answers were revealed to all once everybody had taken their turn.

Any ideas what this was? I thought it would be good to use in the office

From being nosy I think it had a blue screen but can't be sure.

No idea but place marking as sounds fun.

Was it Quizlet?

If you google “group quiz game online” there are several that come up.

Sounds like psych

Could have been Kahoot. I use this in the classroom sometimes. I've also seen Socrative, although I think that was questions to work through at the students' own pace.

@Janek I thought that but we have to use a laptop to host kahoot so not sure if you could play it on a train with just phones.

Thanks. I'll take a look at these.

For those that have used any of the abode - are they free of charge?

Yes they are, the kahoot one tries to upsell you but just use the free version
