Crowd Mode Explained:
Crowd mode in TriviaMaker allows participants to join a trivia game you’re hosting and answer questions in real time using their own devices. This eliminates the need for physical buzzers and makes the game accessible to a wider audience.
Here’s how it works:
Host creates a game: You choose the game settings, categories, and questions.
Participants join: Players open the provided URL on their devices and enter a nickname.
The game starts: You present the questions through the host screen, and participants answer through their devices.
Real-time results: Answers are submitted and displayed on the host screen, allowing you to track progress and keep everyone engaged.
Benefits of Crowd Mode:
Increased engagement: More people can participate, making the game more interactive and exciting.
Remote play: Players can join from anywhere with an internet connection, ideal for virtual gatherings or large groups.
No physical equipment: Eliminate the need for physical buzzers or controllers, simplifying setup and gameplay.
