Host Are You Smarter for a Large Group: Teams, Turns and an 11-Question Board
PRIVATE HOST KEY: keep answers off the player screen.
https://www.areyousmartergame.com/blog/are-you-smarter-large-groups
Original independent practice resource. Not official television questions. All values are virtual.
TXT planning aid: enter questions manually; this is not a game import.

Projected-room plan: form discussion tables, give every person A-D paper cards and appoint a rotating spokesperson. Display only the player view. These table subdivisions are manual facilitation, not additional native teams.
Use a 30-second silent think, a 30-second table discussion and a single agreed response; extend time when access needs require it. Ask two tables to explain a rejected choice after the reveal.
Online joining is optional. Free rooms allow three participant devices. Paid plans add capacity; consult the current pricing page rather than promising a tested maximum. Many people can watch a projection without each being a joined device.
Sign in, open the named starter in the template library and choose Use Template, or start a manual game at /create.
Use Game details, Categories, Add questions, Customize and Review & launch. Put two regular questions in each of five categories; keep the Final Challenge separate.
Copy each prompt, all four choices, correct answer and explanation manually. These sheets are planning aids, not imports or slide decks.
Preview before hosting. Keep the host key private and share only the player screen or player sheet. Free manual games allow two teams and three participant devices; a free account keeps three browser drafts.
