Games Like Kahoot — Free Quizzes With No Setup
Kahoot is built for a host, a projector and a room full of phones. That is great for a classroom and heavy going for four people on a sofa. If you want a scored quiz running in the next ten seconds with nobody joining a room, start with the rounds below.
About Kahoot!: Host-run quiz platform where players answer on their phones. Free tier for small groups, paid plans above that. kahoot.com ↗
Closest thing here: Guess the Year
A history quiz built entirely from well-documented events — moon landings, film releases, tech launches. The four options are always close together, which is what makes it hard and what makes it a good round to shout at a screen with other people.
Guess the Year
When did it actually happen? Closer than you think.

Questions people ask
- Is there a free alternative to Kahoot?
- For phone-based multiplayer with many players, Kahoot's own free tier is still the simplest. For a quiz on one shared screen, the rounds here are free with no account, no room code and no player limit.
- Can I use these in a classroom?
- Yes — put a round on the projector and let the class answer out loud or on paper. Each run draws new questions, so you can play several rounds back to back.
