Questions people ask

Do I need to create an account?

No. Everything on this site runs in your browser and remembers your progress on your own device.

Will the game repeat questions?

It tracks what you've already played on your device and holds those back until the whole bank has been used.

Can activity directors use this with a group?

Yes — that's what the community edition is for. Run it on a tablet with a speaker, or print the question cards for a paper round.

What do I actually get when I buy a kit?

A download delivered the moment payment clears — print it as many times as you like for your own family or building.

Can I play on a TV or tablet?

Yes. One person moderates on a phone or tablet; the layout scales up fine on a larger screen too.

Who makes this

I'm Jeffrey Davis — a retiree who likes walking, cooking and grilling with friends, and a good game around the table. Everything here is made to be useful, printable, and easy then cleaned up so other people could use it too. If a game fills an evening or a guide saves you a search, it did its job.
