Create a Flippity Video Game for Review with ChatGPT! 🎮🔥

Keeping students engaged during review activities can be a challenge, but Flippity makes it easy to turn a standard quiz into an exciting, interactive game! In this post, we'll walk through how to set up a Flippity multiple-choice game and introduce a time-saving script that will help you quickly generate questions and answers.

What is Flippity?

Flippity is a free tool that converts Google Sheets into a variety of educational games. The multiple-choice game is one of the most engaging options, allowing students to answer questions in a fast-paced, arcade-style format.

Step-by-Step: Creating a Flippity Multiple-Choice Game

1. Get the Flippity Template

  • Visit Flippity and select the Instructions tab under the multiple-choice game.
  • Click Make a Copy to generate your own editable Google Sheet.

2. Quickly Generate Questions with This Script

Instead of manually typing questions and answers, use the following script to generate structured quiz data in seconds. Simply paste this prompt into an AI chat:

Prompt:
*"Can you provide me with questions and answers that I can place in a Google Sheet? Please ask me for the topic and how many questions. Structure the data so that:

  • The question is in Column A
  • The correct answer is in Column B
  • An incorrect answer is in Column C
  • Another incorrect answer is in Column D"*

Example Input:
"Fourth Grade Multiplication, 15 questions."

The AI will generate the questions and answers, which you can then copy and paste directly into the Flippity Google Sheet.

3. Copy & Paste into the Flippity Template

  • Highlight the AI-generated content and press Ctrl + C to copy.
  • Open your Flippity Google Sheet and paste (Ctrl + V) it into the corresponding columns.

4. Publish Your Game

  • Click File > Share > Publish to Web.
  • Select Publish, then copy the provided link and paste it into the designated cell in the Google Sheet.
  • Your game is now live and ready to play!

How the Game Works

Once launched, students will see falling asteroids with multiple-choice options. Their goal is to select the correct answer before the asteroid reaches the bottom.
Correct answer → Earns 10,000 points
Wrong answer → Loses a life, but keeps points

Customization Options

  • Adjust the game speed for different skill levels.
  • Let students create their own games to reinforce learning.
  • Use the type-in mode for an extra challenge.

Why Use Flippity?

Fast & Easy: No coding needed—just fill in a spreadsheet!
Engaging: Turns review into an interactive challenge.
Student-Created Content: Encourages ownership of learning.

Flippity’s multiple-choice game is a fun and effective way to make review sessions more dynamic. Try it out, and let the learning (and gaming) begin!
