Team Race and Tug of War

An online review race for the classroom. Each team has a lane and a racer. Answer a question right and your racer moves forward; first to the finish line wins. Switch to Tug of War for two teams. Free, no student devices.

How to play Team Race

  1. Choose Race (2 to 6 teams) or Tug of War (2 teams), pick a track length and go full screen.
  2. Show a question. Teams write the answer on mini whiteboards or call it out. Press Show answer to check.
  3. Tap the lane of every team that got it right (or press 1–6). Their racer moves one step, and ⭐ boost squares give a free extra step.
  4. The first racer to reach the flag wins. In Tug of War each right answer pulls the rope one step toward that team.

It is the classroom race from Blooket and Gimkit on one shared screen, and the online cousin of the relay race review and Around the World. For a game with surprises, try Lucky Boxes.

Questions teachers ask

Frequently asked questions

Can more than one team move on the same question?

Yes. Every team answers every question, and you tap each team that got it right. That keeps all teams working, not just the fastest one.

How long does a race take?

A short track takes about 6 to 10 questions, a long one about 15 to 20, so it fits a 10 minute review.

What if I tap the wrong team?

Press Undo (or Backspace) to take back the last move.
