How to build a video game quiz to play

Plenty of players and students want a video game quiz to play that tests what they actually know about how games work. The fastest way to get one is to start from the source material you already have, such as a design lecture, a strategy guide, or your own notes.

  • Upload game design notes, slides or a strategy guide as a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or photo.
  • Mix multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions in one quiz.
  • Read the explanation after each answer to see why it was right or wrong.
  • Save exports for later review on paid plans.
Example gameplay design quiz questions
What is a game loop?The repeating cycle of reading input, updating game state and rendering each frame. It runs many times per second, which is why it sits at the center of how a game runs.
What does 'core loop' mean in game design?The short sequence of actions a player repeats most often, such as explore, fight and loot. It matters because it determines whether the game feels satisfying moment to moment.
What is a non-player character (NPC)?A character controlled by the game's code rather than by a human player. NPCs provide quests, dialogue, opponents and other world behavior.
True or false: a game's difficulty curve describes how challenge changes over time.True. The curve shows how difficulty rises across a game, and a good one keeps players engaged without overwhelming them.
What is frame rate?The number of frames a game displays each second, usually measured in FPS. Higher frame rates generally make motion look smoother and controls feel more responsive.
