Virtual trivia night for friends and small teams
Virtual trivia is easy to run badly: one person reads questions into a laggy call while everyone else waits. With Know It, the game runs on each person's phone, so the video call is just for talking, teasing and celebrating.

How to host a virtual trivia night
- Start your video call as usual (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, Discord, WhatsApp).
- Open knowitgame.com on your phone and tap Create a game.
- Paste the invite link in the call's chat. Everyone opens it on their phone.
- Pick 5 rounds for a short break or 10–20 for a full evening, and start.
No screen sharing needed: every phone shows the clues, the bets and the scores. If you'd like everyone watching the same thing, share the host's screen too.
Virtual trivia ideas that keep it fun
- Bets make it social. Before the clues, each player bets on whether someone else will get it right. Expect the call to get loud.
- No answer-shouting. Answers are typed and stay hidden until the reveal, so nobody copies over the call.
- A timer for big talkers. The host can turn on 30 seconds to 2 minutes per step.
- Mixed-language teams. Each phone can use English, Lithuanian or Polish.
Virtual trivia for work teams
Know It suits small teams of up to 10 as a warm-up or a Friday break: no sign-ups to approve, nothing to install, and nothing stored beyond the names people type (privacy details). For bigger groups, run a few games side by side in breakout rooms.
