Run Word Wheel Quest

Teams spin a wheel, buy letters, and try to solve a hidden phrase. You run it from the front of the room.

Start it

Go to Admin → Word Wheel Quest, set up your teams, and start. The display shows the wheel and the puzzle board.

A turn

  1. The team spins. The wheel lands on a segment.
  2. Point segments let them guess a consonant — each hit is worth the segment value times how many times that letter appears.
  3. They can attempt to solve at any point in their turn.

Wheel segments

Beyond point values, the wheel holds a few specials:

  • Power Guess and Free Hint — help the team.
  • Mystery Tile — reveals a letter.
  • Skip Shield — protects a turn.
  • Lose Turn and Score Slip — cost the team.
  • Team Boost — a bonus.

Finishing

Solving reveals the phrase and awards a bonus. Next puzzle moves on; after the last one the display shows the podium.
