Frequently asked questions
What is a Jeopardy game maker?
It is a tool that builds a Jeopardy-style quiz board: categories across the top, clues worth more points further down, and answers given as questions. With Manus, you describe the game in everyday words, and it builds a browser game with the board, scores and rounds you asked for.
How do I make a Jeopardy game from my notes?
Attach your notes, a PDF or a slide deck and say who is playing. Manus turns the main topics into categories and writes clues for each, from easy to hard. Play the first version, then ask for changes in the same chat.
How do I make a Jeopardy game on Google Slides or PowerPoint?
Start a slides task in Manus and ask for a Jeopardy template: a board slide, then a slide for each clue and its answer. Download the deck as a PPTX file for PowerPoint, or open it in Google Slides. Slides do not keep score, so use the online board if you want a scoreboard and a timer.
Is the Jeopardy game maker free?
You can sign up for free and use the free credits in your account to try it. Building a game uses credits, and bigger boards or longer builds use more, so see how credits work. Publishing does not use credits. A multiplayer server runs on a Cloud Computer that you choose or buy separately.
Can I play a Jeopardy game on Zoom?
Yes. Open the published game in your browser and share that window or tab. You pick the clues and update the scores while players answer out loud or in the chat.
Can players buzz in?
Yes. For players in the same room, ask for one buzzer key per team on one keyboard. For players on their own devices, ask for online multiplayer, which needs a game server on a Manus Cloud Computer that you choose or buy separately.
Can I print my Jeopardy game?
Yes. Ask for a print button in your prompt and say what it should print, such as the board, one card per clue and a host answer key on letter or A4 paper.
Is this the official Jeopardy! game?
No. Jeopardy! is a registered trademark of Jeopardy Productions, Inc. Manus is not affiliated with or endorsed by the show. You make your own trivia game in the same board format, with your own title and questions.
