You can now easily share your Factile Jeopardy games, making them more accessible for others to play. With just a few clicks, you can email the game link or post it directly on popular platforms like X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, Pinterest, Remind, or Google Classroom.
There are three easy ways to share your Factile games:
1. Using the Share Icon in the “My Games” Dashboard: Simply navigate to your My Games dashboard and click on the icon next to the game you want to distribute. This allows you to quickly generate a shareable link for others to access.
2. While editing: If you’re actively working on a game, you can share it directly from the editing interface. Look for the “Share” option, which lets you distribute the game without leaving the editing screen, making it quick and convenient to collaborate with others.
3. Through the Preview Tab: Before finalizing your game, you can use the Preview tab to review how it will appear to players. From this tab, you also have the option to share the game instantly, ensuring that others can access and test it before official gameplay.
4. Share a game while choosing a game style from the Play button: At the top menu bar, locate the “Share” button, which is highlighted in yellow.
Sharing Options
This feature allows users to share their game with others through multiple options. At the top, there are three tabs:
- Share
- Share Settings
- Embed
1. Share Tab
Within the Share tab, users can enter a username or email in the input field and select a permission level (e.g., Viewer) before clicking the Share button to grant access.
Below that, there is a “People with access” section, indicating who can view or play the game. The user can also choose the game type from a dropdown menu.
Tip: If you don’t select a specific game type, all game types are enabled by default. This way, the participants who have access to the game will be able to choose a game type as they open the game link.
Further down, the “Link sharing on” section provides a setting where users can select who can access the game using the link. There are 3 sharing options:
(Private) No one except me can play. Only the owner has access to the game.
Anyone with the “Link” can play. As long as people have the game’s link, they can jump in and start playing.
Anyone with the “SHARE PIN” can play. A ‘SHARE PIN’ will be generated and you can share this with anyone to allow them access to the game.
The “Copy Link” button allows users to quickly copy the generated game link for easy distribution. For added convenience, there is also an option to send the link directly to an email address, allowing seamless sharing with specific recipients.
Additionally, users have the option to send the shareable link to their email address by clicking the “Send” button. At the bottom, there are various social sharing icons, allowing users to directly share the game on platforms such as X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, Pinterest, Remind, and Google Classroom. The Close button at the bottom right allows users to exit the sharing menu when finished.
2. Share Settings
This feature ensures that the game maintains a consistent look and feel, even when accessed by different players. Under the Game Design Settings, users can modify visual elements such as the background image, background color, game board color, question tile color, dollar amount color, and text color. These customization options help in creating a visually appealing and engaging game experience.
3. Embed
By selecting this option, users can copy the generated embed code specific to the chosen game type.
