Mix easy and hard questions

Start each round with one question everyone can get, then raise the difficulty. A room that scores early stays engaged. Save the trickiest question for the end of the night, when the top teams are close.

Make the questions your own

Every answer set below is a starting point: swap in your own city, your company or your class. You can also let the AI draft a fresh set from a one line brief, then fix the right answers yourself.
