Free Live Quiz Maker
A live quiz maker lets you write scored questions and have a room answer them on their phones while you watch a leaderboard fill in. With ShuffleTurn you set the points per question, share a link or QR code, and players join with no signup.
- Free to use
- Points per question
- Leaderboard with CSV export
- No timer, no speed bonus
What you get when you make a live quiz here
You write the questions yourself. Each one has between 2 and 12 answer options, one of them marked correct, and a point value you pick. Players answer on their own phones, and the leaderboard adds up their points as the quiz moves along. At the end you can export the results and the leaderboard as CSV.
A session can hold up to 100 questions, though a good live quiz is far shorter. Because quiz is just one question type, you can drop in a word cloud to warm people up, a rating question to ask how it went, or an open text question for suggestions. Everything runs from one join link.
Limits you should know before you start
There is no countdown timer on individual questions. You decide when a question is over and move on. That suits a classroom, a team session or a pub-style night where conversation is half the point, but it is not what you want if the tension of a ticking clock is the whole game.
There is also no speed bonus. Two players who both answer correctly earn the same points no matter who tapped first. If you want speed to matter, you can say so out loud and move on after the first few hands, though the scoring itself will not reward it.
We have not load-tested the app for very large events, and it runs on a single realtime worker. Small and medium groups are the sensible use today. We also do not offer slide decks, themes, custom branding or imports from other quiz tools, so you type or paste your own questions.
How this compares with game-show style quizzes
Game-show style quiz tools are built around the feel of a game, usually with a clock and some reward for answering fast. ShuffleTurn is closer to a scored poll. It skips that tension for something simpler, with no account for the host or players, no per-question clock and a pace you control. If you want the arcade feel, a game-style tool is the better fit. If you want a calm, fair quiz for a team or class, this is a reasonable choice. For prices and plan limits on the other side, check Kahoot's own site, or see our Kahoot comparison page.
