So let’s dive right in and create your very own PowerPoint Quiz Game in just 15 simple steps:

Total Time Needed: 5 minutes

Softwares:

- Microsoft PowerPoint

Features:

- Hyperlinks

Here is how we create an Interactive PowerPoint Quiz Game:

Step 1 : Create Quiz Game Title Slide

In the first slide, create your cover page with any images or shapes you would like for an aesthetic start.

Step 2 : Disable Navigation in Slide-Show Mode - Browsed at a kiosk

Under Slide-Show Tab, Click on Set-up Slide-Show. In the pop-up, choose "Browsed at a Kiosk". Click ‘ok’ to confirm. This will ensure that you can navigate in slide-show mode only through hyperlinks.

Step 3 : Design Wrong Answer Slide

Then create a new slide. This slide will be shown to the participant if they answer incorrectly. Design it to your liking.

Step 4 : Add Question Slide

Add a new slide and write your first question. The answers will be in Multiple Choice Format (MCQ). Add shapes and design it as you would like your question page to be.

Step 5 : Correct Answer Slide

Add one more slide. This slide will be shown to the participant if they answer correctly. Design it to your liking.

Step 6 : Add Start Game Button

Go to Slide 1 and add a "Start Quiz" shape.
Select the inserted shape and open the insert tab. In the insert tab, find and open the ‘Action’ menu. We will now apply a hyperlink to that shape.

Step 7 : Hyperlink for "Start Quiz" Button

In the action settings pop-up, click on “Hyperlink to” and select the ‘Slide...’ option. A menu named “Hyperlink to Slide” will open automatically. Select the slide with the question i.e. Slide 3.

Step 8 : Hyperlinks for "Answer"

In the question slide, select the correct option. Click on Insert > Action > Hyperlink to > Next Slide i.e the correct answer slide. In the case of the wrong answer shape, it should hyperlink to Slide 2 (not 'previous slide' but rather "Slide..." > Slide 2)

Step 9 : Retry Question Button

In the Wrong Answer Slide (Slide 2), add a "retry" shape. Insert a hyperlink to "Last Slide Viewed". If you then click on the "retry" shape, you'll be taken to the last question slide that was attempted.
Insert > Actions > Hyperlink to > Last Slide Viewed

Step 10 : Next Question Button

In the Correct Answer Slide (Slide 4), add a "Next Question" Button.
Insert > Actions > Hyperlink to > Next Slide

Step 11 : Add more Questions

Select the first question slide and the “correct answer” slide by holding down the ‘ctrl’ key. Copy-paste them to duplicate.
Repeat this for as many questions you like. Change the questions and answer choices in the new slides.

Step 12 : Add Appropriate Hyperlinks to Answer Shapes

In the new question slides, you might type in the correct answer in a box that might contain the hyperlink for the wrong answer.
Just cross-check and add the appropriate hyperlinks to the answer shapes.

Step 13 : Add End Quiz Button

Go to the last “Correct answer” slide and add a shape with the text "End Quiz Game". The shape should be Hyperlinked to > End Show
Also, Add an ending message:: "Congratulations! You have completed the Quiz”. in the last slide.
