Overview
The ClassTools Arcade Game Generator allows you to submit one set of questions and answers and then converts these into half a dozen revision games that can be shared as weblinks or embedded in your website, blog or wiki.
Several games include a leaderboard so that at the end of the allocated time the teacher can see the highest scores attained by each student.
The games generated currently include:
- Asteroids
- Pong!
- Manic Miner
- Wordshoot
- Cannonball
- Matching Pairs
- Flashcards
Taking it further
