Which classroom game should I run?

CommunATI ships six classroom games. They split into two kinds, and the difference decides what you need in the room.

Games where students play on their own device

Everyone needs a phone, tablet or laptop. The display shows a join code; students go to /play, type the code, pick a nickname, and answer from their seat.

  • Classroom Quiz — multiple-choice rounds from a question pack.
  • Buzz-In — first to buzz gets to answer.

Games you run from the front of the room

No student devices needed. You set up teams, the display is the board, and teams answer out loud while you drive it from your laptop.

What every game has in common

  1. You start it from Admin, signed in as an organizer.
  2. You pick or pair a display to be the board — see Connect a display.
  3. You keep the host controls on your own screen. Students never see them.
  4. Scores are per team or per nickname — never a child's real name.
