Is the Jeopardy game maker free?

Yes. Make and play as many games as you like. No sign-up, no card and no watermark.

Do I need an account?

No. Your game is saved in your browser as you type. To keep it somewhere else, or to send it to someone, copy its link.

How do I share my game?

Press Copy link. The link carries the whole game, so anyone who opens it can play it, or change a copy of their own. Nothing is stored on our side.

Can I play it on Zoom, Teams or Google Meet?

Yes. Press Play, then share your screen or the browser tab. You run the board; the teams call out their answers.

Can students buzz in from their phones?

Not yet. The host runs the board on one screen and marks each team’s answer. It works on a projector, a smartboard or a shared screen.

How many teams can play?

From one player to 8 teams. Rename teams on the board, and click a score to correct it.

What is a Daily Double?

A square where only the team that picked it plays, and it bets first: any amount up to its score, or the board’s top value if that’s higher. Turn it on for any square.

How does the Final round work?

After the last square, teams see the Final round’s category and each bets part of its score. Then the clue: right adds the bet, wrong takes it away. Teams on zero or less sit it out.

Can I print the answers?

Yes. Print answers gives the host a one-page answer key, with every clue and answer by category.

No. You write the clues, or start from one of our ready-made boards. Every answer on those has been checked against a source.

Is this the official Jeopardy! game?

No. It’s a free tool for making your own Jeopardy-style game. Jeopardy! is a trademark of Jeopardy Productions, Inc., which is not connected with Knola.
