Kahoot!: great for classrooms, heavy for a quick game
Kahoot! is the best-known name in live quizzes, but it isn’t built for “let’s just play something now.”
- You can’t start straight away
- Hosting means creating an account, which includes entering your date of birth.
- Paid plans come first
- Sign-up steers you to the subscriptions, starting at about £3 a month for Kahoot!+ Bronze, with the free option below them.
- AI quizzes cost extra
- Creating a quiz with AI from your own topic is a paid-plan feature.
- Small free games only
- The free plan allows 10 players; anything bigger needs a subscription.
- A busy interface
- There’s a lot on screen before you get to the game itself.
Infinite Quiz: too many steps before the fun
Infinite Quiz offers a free daily game in six languages and multiplayer rooms with a join code. Custom topics are harder to get to.
- Login for custom topics
- You need an account to create a quiz on your own subject.
- Five custom quizzes, then you’re done
- Once logged in, you can create only five.
- A review step before you play
- You check the generated questions before starting. That suits a teacher preparing a lesson, but it slows down a game night with friends.
- No countdown timer
- Without a clock, a question has no pressure and less excitement.
What A Shop for Quiz does differently
Every choice in A Shop for Quiz is aimed at one thing: getting you to the first question quickly. On Kahoot!, that means no account, no date of birth and no plan picker. Compared with Infinite Quiz, you type any topic, press play and a timer starts on the first question, with no login, no five-quiz cap and no review screen.
- Open and play
- No sign-up, no date of birth, no email. Nothing to install: it plays in your browser.
- Any topic, free
- Pick from 47 ready-made topics, plus history for individual countries, type your own for AI-generated questions, or press “Surprise me”.
- Question checks before play
- Generated questions are screened for duplicate answer choices, repeated wording and detectable conflicts between an answer and its explanation. Recent history helps reduce repeats when enabled; automated checks cannot guarantee every fact.
- Multiplayer at no cost
- Host up to 20 players, including the host, with a room code. It works in the same room or over a video call.
- Your game, your rules
- Before each game, set the number of questions (10, 15 or 20), the difficulty (Easy, Medium or Hard) and the timer (10, 15 or 20 seconds).
- A clean screen
- One question, one countdown, four answers. When a flag picture is shown, it comes with a text description for accessibility.
