Prepared Games

The host can prepare a game before getting everyone together to play, so that host can transition easily from one round to the next. Rounds in prepared games can have preplanned rules (e.g. scoring and timing rules) and question sets.

Getting Started Quickly With a Freestyle Game When entering Hosting Mode, a Freestyle Game will begin automatically. A Freestyle Game is intended to let the host begin a game with a default set of rules quickly and easily. There is only one round in a Freestyle Game. The host can change the rules of this round as desired.

Custom Prepared Games Prepared Games consist of one or more rounds. Each round has its own rules and question sets. The Edit Game Screen is shown here, illustrating a Prepared Game with three rounds, each with a different question set, and a Timed Round as the final round with different rules than the first two rounds: Click here for large image.

Navigating Between Rounds During a Prepared Game When the host gets to the end of the questions in a round, it is easy to start the next round or load a new question set. There is an option to show the round intro screen on the television to begin the next round (when a TV is connected), or to load the next round without showing the round intro. When the next round is loaded, the rules will automatically be updated and the question set(s) associated with the round will be loaded.
The host can also load the next round (or any other round in the game) from the Round Navigator, which is displayed by tapping the round or game name at the top of the screen: Click here for large image.

Prepared Games make it possible to create an immersive seamless experience for the players in a game with several rounds of play.
