Quizduell
board game based on an app
Category cards and question cards, sorted by categories, are prepared. Each player takes his individually styled avatar as well as his quiz board, a tip cube and a scoring pin of his preferred color.
Then all agree on a level of difficulty – easy, medium or hard – and then play six rounds, each comprising the phases of choose category, questions and scoring. The quiz master of the round reveals three category cards and chooses one of them. Then he draws a question card from the respective category and reads the question corresponding to the chosen level and the four answers. Then the timer is turned and all player – including the current quiz master – give a tip on the correct answer, within the runtime of the timer, by placing their marker on their quiz board, of course as secretly as possible. Then all reveal their guess and the quiz master decodes the correct answer by placing the decoder on the answer area on the card, the letter for the correct answer becomes visible. If your marker is placed correctly, you advance your pin accordingly on the box edge. After three questions in the same category a new quiz master and a new category are selected. After six such category rounds with three questions each you win with most points.
In team play you form two teams, members can confer about the answer.
In tournament mode two players play against each other, the loser is out of the game.
Basically, nothing really new, a standard quiz game, enlivened by the relation to the App and the avatars which you can personalize, but of course always good for a challenging and informative evening of questions and possible answers.
