Here are the steps to moderating the Jeopardy game:
1. Click on a tile to select it. Once selected, the question will be displayed on the screen and the timer will begin counting down. If you prefer not to use the timer, you can choose to turn it off before starting the game.
Tip: If an image is included in a question or answer, you can view it in full-screen mode by clicking on it. To return the image to its original size, click on it again.
Tip: The Hint mode, activated by the Moderator, offers valuable insights into each button’s functionality.
In the screenshot below, you can see an example of how to view more information about a button. Simply hover your mouse pointer over the button and a description of its function will appear in a tooltip. In this example, the moderator hovers over the “Manage Teams” button and its description appears above the Hints button.
2. Once a question is displayed, teams will be given the chance to provide their answer. The first team to raise their hand (or press the buzzer in a “Buzzer Mode” game) will have the opportunity to respond.
3. After a team answers, the Moderator will assess whether their response is correct or incorrect. If the team’s answer is correct, the Moderator can click on the 
located on the team podium. If the answer is incorrect, the Moderator can click on the 
instead.
If a team’s answer is correct, the value of the tile will be added automatically to their score. In the event of an incorrect answer, the value of the tile will be deducted from the team’s score.
4. After the moderator selects either the or , the game will show the answer.
Tip: If no team responds to a question, you can choose to skip scoring by clicking on “Skip/See Answer” displayed in the top right corner of the screen. This will reveal the answer to the question.
5. Once all the Tiles have been opened, the Final Factile question will be displayed. All teams will have an opportunity to provide their answer, and the winning team will be automatically displayed.

Playing with More than 5 Teams
If you have more than five teams playing a game, don’t worry! Your game will display five teams at a time. You can easily navigate through the other teams using the arrows at the bottom of the screen. Please note that this feature is exclusively available to Home/School Pro, Home/School Plus, and Business Pro accounts. Up to 100 teams can play at a time.
What is the difference between Skip/See Answer and Toggle Question/Answer?
The “Skip/See Answer” button displays the answer without scoring the question. This is helpful when no player or team has buzzed in or raised their hand to answer the question. The “Toggle Question/Answer” allows you to toggle between the question and answer tile.
Global and Game-Specific Settings
There are two ways you can customize your games.
1. Global Customization. You can customize the game settings to suit your preferences and apply them to all your games, unless a specific game has “Game Specific” settings turned on. This feature allows you to streamline the game setup process and ensure that all games adhere to your preferred settings.
2. Game-Specific Customization. When “Use Game Specific settings for this Game” is turned ON, it means that the settings applied to the game will be specific to that game, and “Global Customizations” will not affect this game. This allows you to customize settings for individual games and override any global settings that may have been set.
