Virtual quiz night

Host a virtual quiz night without the prep.

The hard part of a quiz night is writing questions and keeping score. Approx does both, so the host gets to play instead of marking answers.

The host can finally play

At a traditional quiz night someone writes the questions, reads them out and adds up the scores. Approx takes care of all three: questions come from a reviewed library, a timer moves each round along, and scoring is automatic.

Plan the evening

A game of 5 to 10 rounds takes a few minutes; several in a row make a full evening. Change the categories between games so everyone gets a favourite topic.

  1. Start a video call with your group.
  2. Create a private game and paste its link into the call chat.
  3. Agree on the rounds and timing, then start.
  4. Play another game with different categories for the next part of the night.

Keep it fair across a mixed group

Because answers are ranges, a well-judged estimate can beat a lucky exact guess, so players who rarely win a pub quiz still have a real chance.

Power-ups add a light layer of tactics. You can switch them off in the game settings if your group prefers a straight quiz.

Up to 10 players per game

Each game holds up to 10 players. For a bigger crowd, split into several private games and compare winners at the end, or play in teams where each team shares one device.
