Live Quizzes in Slack
Turn any channel into a game show. One command posts timed questions with answer buttons — your team plays right inside Slack, with live countdowns, speed scoring, and a leaderboard.
Install, then paste the command in any channel to try our Flags of the World demo.
Whole channel plays
Questions post with answer buttons — everyone taps, no accounts, no app switching.
Live countdowns
The question timer ticks in the message, with a per-second finish and an answered counter.
Scores & leaderboards
Speed-based scoring, per-question results with vote bars, and a final podium.
Threads keep it tidy
Results, your private verdict, and the banter live in each question's thread.
How it works
- Start a game: type
/playquiz CODEin any channel — the 6-letter code from any of your quizzes on playquiznow.com (orBIINBQfor the demo). - Everyone plays: questions post one at a time with buttons; faster correct answers score more. You get an instant private receipt of your pick, and a correct/incorrect verdict with points when the timer ends.
- Results in threads: vote bars, the leaderboard, and a next-question countdown land in each question's thread — the channel stays a clean feed of questions.
/playquiz stopends a game early.
