A Jeopardy-style trivia game for your TV
Trivia Board puts a full game board on your TV and turns everyone's phone into a buzzer. Pick a clue, race to buzz in, answer in the form of a question. It's free, and there's nothing to install.
How to play Trivia Board
Open Trivia Board on any TV or laptop with a web browser. Everyone joins at hangtime.games/play on their phone with the four-letter code. Then:
- Open Trivia Board on the TV and pick 3 to 6 categories, including live ones written fresh from each day's news.
- Everyone joins at hangtime.games/play on their phone with the four-letter code.
- The player in control picks a clue on their phone. Clues are statements and answers are questions ("What is Paris?").
- Everyone races to buzz in. Right answer: you win the clue's value and pick next. Wrong: you lose it, and someone else can steal.
- One clue hides a Daily Double: only the picker plays it, and bets first. Highest score when the board is empty wins.

Questions
Is Trivia Board free?
Yes. Trivia Board is free for everyone with full rooms and no account. Just open it on the TV and share the room code.
Is this the real Jeopardy! game?
No. Trivia Board is Hangtime's own Jeopardy-style game: same idea of a board of categories, clues as statements and answers as questions, with our own clues. It isn't affiliated with the Jeopardy! TV show.
How many people can play?
1 to 8 players buzz in from their own phones. Everyone else in the room is welcome to shout answers.
Will the questions repeat?
Rarely. There are 580+ clues, the board skips ones your group has already seen on that screen, and four live categories are written fresh every day.
Can we play Trivia Board over a video call?
Trivia Board is best in person, because it's built around one shared board and a race to buzz in. For video calls, try Hangtime's remote games like Doodler or Hang Five. If you're on your own, Trivia Board Solo Play runs right on your phone.
