See it in action
A quick look at the game in motion before you buy.
You want a trivia game everyone can play in two minutes, on whatever screen is already in the room. Not a PowerPoint deck you have to build. Not an app everyone has to install. Not a website that breaks the moment the wifi drops.
Higher or Lower is one HTML file. Double-click it, pick a pack, and play. That is the whole setup.
Why this, not a PowerPoint game
Most party trivia games are PowerPoint or Canva templates. You have to own the software, open the right program, and click through slides while you keep score on a napkin. If you want to change a question, you are editing slides.
This is a real game, not a slideshow. It keeps score for you, runs a timer if you want one, tracks streaks and leaderboards, and lets you write your own questions right inside the game. No PowerPoint, no Canva, no Office, nothing to install.
300 questions, 10 packs, 4 ways to play
Three hundred trivia questions sorted into 10 packs: General, Science, Pop Culture, History, Sports, Food, Money, Geography, Tech, and Human Body. Play one pack, or mix up to three into a single mash-up game when you want more variety.
Solo
Play alone, beat your high score, and climb the rank tiers. Good for a quiet warm-up or learning which packs you know best.
Streak
Endless mode. The first miss ends the run. Chase the longest streak you can build.
Presenter
Host reads to the room. No scoring, just questions and reveals. This is the one for classrooms and big parties where one person runs the screen.
Team
Two to eight teams compete with custom names and colors. The leaderboard tracks the season so you can run it again next week and keep a running tally.
The rules take five seconds to learn
Read the statement. Guess whether the real answer is higher or lower. Spin to reveal the number and a quick fact behind it. That is it. Anyone at the table can play on the first question, no instructions needed.
An optional timer adds pressure when you want it: 10, 15, 20, or 30 seconds per question. Built-in sound effects come with a mute toggle for when the room is already loud enough.
Write your own questions
Open the pack editor and make your own pack right inside the game. Type questions for a birthday, a class unit, a company trivia night, or an inside-joke round only your friends will get. No extra software.
You can import a plain text file of questions and export your packs as files for backup or sharing. Make a pack once, send it to a friend, and they can drop it straight into their copy.
Plays on whatever you already have
Hand the phone around at a party. Cast it to the TV and control it from your thumb. Plug a laptop into the classroom projector. Open it on a smartboard. It is mobile, tablet, laptop, and projector friendly, and keyboard, mouse, and touch all work.
Once the file is on your device, no internet is needed. Save it to your phone, your laptop, or even a USB stick and run it from anywhere.
Built for the rematch
Hall of Fame leaderboards, lifetime stats, and Season tracking keep the competition going week after week. Pause any game and the progress saves automatically, so you can stop for dinner and pick it back up later. This is a game you play more than once.
Who it is for
Families who want a game night that starts in seconds. Teachers running warm-ups, lessons, or end-of-week activities. Offices doing team-building or a holiday party. Trivia hosts who want a clean format with no setup. Anyone who wants a no-install offline game on a phone, laptop, or TV.
What else it does
Multi-pack mash-up. Mix up to three packs into one game when you want more variety in a round.
Optional question timer. 10, 15, 20, or 30 seconds per question, or no timer at all.
Pause and resume. Progress saves automatically, so you can stop and come back to the same game.
Import and export packs. Back up your custom questions or share them with friends as text files.
Sound effects with a mute toggle. Keep the arcade feel, or turn it off when the room is loud.
Keyboard, mouse, and touch. Up and down arrows pick higher or lower, space spins, esc backs out.
Lifetime stats and best-streak tracking. The game remembers your records across sessions.
