You can have up to six categories for your game. Don’t worry if you don’t want to use all of them – just leave them blank, and they won’t show up during gameplay. Each category can have up to five tiles for questions, but any unused tiles will be grayed out during the game. If you would like more categories or questions per category, please check out Double Factile which provides for a 2nd game to be automatically run sequentially after the 1st, carrying over the teams and scores.

Give your game categories clear names! Click directly on a category title (like “Category 1”) and edit it to something descriptive. Note: Unused categories will not appear during the game.
Tips for Categories
- Move Categories from one column to another by using the arrows at the bottom of each Category column on your Factile board.
- Copy/Paste Categories from one game to another. Just click on the 3 dots at the top of each Category column to copy or paste categories on your board.
- Delete a category. Just click on the 3 dots at the top of each Category column to delete a category.
Copying a Category
You can easily copy entire categories (including questions and answers) from one game to another. To do this, you have to open the source game – the one containing the category you want to copy. Find the specific category you want to reuse and click the “Copy option” from the options.
Next, navigate and open the game where you want to add the copied category. Once you’ve navigated to the new game, locate the “Paste” option. This is in the same location as “Copy” (often represented by three dots …). Click “Paste” to seamlessly add the copied category, including its questions and answers, to your new game.
Before pasting the category, you’ll see a confirmation prompt. This is because pasting will overwrite any questions and answers currently in the selected category. To confirm and paste the copied category, simply click “Yes, paste it!”. You should now see the pasted category in your game board.
