Live Quiz is a Kahoot-style game built for families and friends who are not always in the same place. You host; everyone else joins on their own phone with a 5-letter code, a QR scan, or a shared link - whether they are on the same sofa or on another continent. The AI builds each quiz to order: type any topic in any language, pick a difficulty, and get a fresh set of questions for a birthday, a classroom review, or a long-distance family call.
The host screen shows questions and the leaderboard - put it on a TV with the full-screen TV mode, or share it in a video call - while every player answers on their own device. Fastest correct answer earns the most points, and the join code stays visible during play so latecomers can jump straight in. Free, no app, no sign-up.

Frequently asked questions
Can family in another country play with us?๏ผ
Yes - that is exactly what Live Quiz is for. You host, send the join link or code over WhatsApp or Messages, and everyone plays live on their own phone wherever they are. Many families run it alongside a video call so they can see each other's reactions.
How do players join the game?๏ผ
They go to coolfamilygames.com/join and type the 5-letter code from your screen, scan the QR, or tap the link you share. Nothing to install and no account needed - it works in any phone, tablet, or laptop browser.
Can the AI really make a quiz about anything?๏ผ
Type any topic - your hometown, 90s films, a school subject - in any language, choose easy, medium, or hard, and the AI builds the quiz in seconds. If AI is unavailable, a built-in question bank keeps the game playable.
How many people can play at once?๏ผ
From 2 up to 40 players in one game - enough for a classroom, a birthday party, or the whole extended family across time zones.
Can someone join after the game has started?๏ผ
Yes. The join code and QR stay on the host screen during play, so anyone arriving mid-session can jump in and appear on the leaderboard from the next question.
