About this game

Buzzer turns the phones already in the room into a fair, fast buzzer system for trivia nights, review games, and anything where the first hand up wins. The leader's screen shows the board; up to 8 team captains buzz from their phones. The system corrects for slow connections so the first press wins, not the fastest Wi-Fi, and calls a tie when it's honestly too close.

What you need
  • A laptop or device on the room's screen for the buzzer board
  • One phone per team for buzzing in
  • Your own questions. Bible review, trivia, anything.

Questions

Do the kids need to install anything?

No. Phones join from a short link or QR code in the browser. No app, no account, no sign-in.

Is it fair if our Wi-Fi is bad?

That's the point of this one. Each phone syncs its clock with the leader's device and stamps the actual press moment, so a slow connection doesn't lose the buzz. When two presses are too close to honestly separate, the board calls a tie instead of guessing.

How many kids can play?

The whole room. Up to 8 teams buzz, and the rest of each team huddles around their captain. No player caps, free, always.

What if a phone disconnects mid-game?

The team's spot stays reserved. The same phone can rejoin and pick up where it left off, and the board shows the leader who dropped.

Does it keep score?

Yes. Tap a team for a point, double tap to take one back, same as the Scoreboard.
