Live is AgapePlay’s mode for moments when the church gathers in person. A host (pastor, youth leader, camp organizer) drives the game from a projected screen. Participants join by scanning a QR code with their phones — no account required for guests. Ready in under two minutes.

It’s the Christian equivalent of Kahoot: the same plug-and-play ease, applied to Bible memorization.

The three variants

One Percent

11 tiers of escalating difficulty (90% → 1%). The timer tightens each tier, XP rewards explode on the final questions. Compete to be in the 1% who truly know the text.

Classic Quiz

15 questions across 3 difficulty tiers (Easy → Medium → Hard). Balanced format, perfect for Sunday school or intergenerational services where everyone answers at their level.

Guess Who

10 rounds where the host reveals progressive clues about a biblical figure. Players try to guess early — fewer clues consumed = more points. Slow, narrative pace, perfect to close out a sermon.

How it plays out

  1. The host creates a match from /live/create — picks the variant, optionally enables team mode, and launches.
  2. A 6-character code and QR code appear on screen. Players join in 10 seconds.
  3. The host drives questions one by one. Players answer on their phones; scores display live on the shared screen.
  4. Final recap with top 10, winning teams, and exportable results.

Who it’s for

Live was built for pastors and youth leaders who want a Bible activity without tech prep. Typical use cases:

  • Friday night youth service — 15 min of activation before the sermon
  • Sunday school — replace open questions with a dynamic quiz
  • Camps and retreats — themed evening on a book studied during the day
  • Baptisms, confirmations — quiz on key verses prepared during catechism

What makes Live different

Kahoot doesn’t know what Ephesians 6 is. YouVersion doesn’t know how to run a room. Live combines both: a Bible question engine (30+ official sets + your custom questions) and a live host engine (QR, synchronized clock, real-time scoreboard).

Guest mode (no account) is crucial: in a church of 80 people, nobody wants to sign up before playing. AgapePlay designed the flow so that joining takes 5 seconds — scan, nickname, play.

Premium for larger churches

Hosts with Small Church or Church+ subscriptions can:

  • Create custom question sets (verses from your sermon series)
  • Exceed the free player limit
  • Access engagement analytics (which questions stumped the room, weekly participation rate)

FAQ

Do my participants need an account? No. In guest mode (enabled by default), players join with just a nickname. Scores aren’t saved to a profile, but friction is zero.

Can I prepare questions in advance? Yes. Custom sets let you prepare 15-50 questions aligned with your Sunday sermon, to replay Friday night at youth group.

Max player count? Between 20 and 100 depending on your premium tier. For large assemblies, contact us — we handle event setups up to 500 players on request.
