Game Setup

Teams

Add team names (up to 10 teams). You can add or remove teams during setup.

Game Rules

Customize game rules to match your play style.

Randomly placed high-value questions where teams can wager any amount up to their current score
Wrong answers won't reduce scores below zero - perfect for casual play or educational settings
