A good gaming quiz settles arguments that chat has been having for months. This category holds five quiz templates built for exactly that: Video Game Trivia as the all-purpose anchor, plus dedicated quizzes for retro games, board games, esports, and Nintendo. Each ships with 10 questions and a run time of about 4 to 6 minutes, and three arrive with points scoring already set. Pick one, swap in your community's favorite franchises, and drop the link in Discord or your stream chat.
Five quizzes covering consoles, cardboard, and competitive play
Video Game Trivia is the anchor here: 10 questions across genres and generations, points scoring, and a 4 to 6 minute run time. It's the safest first pick because it doesn't assume everyone in your community plays the same thing. Retro Gaming Quiz has the same footprint, 10 questions in 4 to 6 minutes, but aims squarely at the arcade and early console era, which makes it the better call for communities that skew nostalgic.
The other three narrow further. Nintendo Quiz and Esports Quiz each run 10 questions in about 6 minutes, one for the Mario and Zelda crowd, one for people who can name roster changes from two seasons ago. Board Games Quiz is the outlier worth remembering: 10 questions on tabletop games, handy for game cafes, board game nights, and Discord servers that play more than video games. Video Game Trivia, Retro Gaming Quiz, and Board Games Quiz come with points scoring already configured. Esports Quiz and Nintendo Quiz don't preset a scoring mode, so you choose how answers count when you customize them, and automatic scoring handles the math either way.
Built for stream chat and Discord servers
These templates all share the same distribution model: a link. Drop it in your Discord announcements channel, pin it in chat during a stream, or put the QR code on screen during a break. Takers don't need an account, so the barrier is one click, and the conversational one-question-per-screen mode with a progress bar works well on the phones most of your audience is watching from.
Two settings matter more for communities than anywhere else. Retake settings decide whether the quiz is a one-shot leaderboard event or something people can grind toward a perfect score. And because scoring is automatic, you can call out results live as they land instead of tallying anything yourself. One honest limit: there's no buzzer-style head-to-head live mode, so this is everyone racing the same quiz on their own screens, not a game show format.
Rewrite the questions around your community's games
The stock questions are a starting lineup, not a locked set. Every question, answer option, point value, and results threshold is editable, so the Video Game Trivia template can become a quiz about your specific speedrunning community, and the Esports Quiz can be rebuilt around one title's competitive scene instead of the whole field. Ten questions is just the default depth; add more if your community wants a longer night.
Branding is editable too, which matters when the quiz is part of a channel identity. Colors, result screens, and the wording of every score tier can match your stream's tone, whether that's earnest or ruthless. Writing a low-score tier that tells someone to uninstall takes thirty seconds and does more for shares than anything else on this page.
Automatic scoring and the stats that fuel the rematch
Scoring is automatic, and per-question analytics show exactly which questions your community aced and which one wiped everyone out. That's useful twice: once for bragging rights, and again when you're writing the next quiz and want to calibrate difficulty. Results also export to CSV, so a season-long leaderboard across several quizzes is one spreadsheet away.
If you'd rather host the quiz on your own site than send people elsewhere, there's an embed snippet, plus a WordPress shortcode through the Uplup plugin. Webhooks and Zapier can push completions into whatever you use to track your community, and an optional lead capture step collects an email or Discord handle before showing results, which is how a trivia night quietly becomes a mailing list. The free plan includes every feature with 50 responses per month, enough to test a quiz on your regulars before a bigger drop.
