Team BridgeA Water Cooler Trivia alternative: live trivia in your meeting
Water Cooler Trivia sends your team a weekly quiz in Slack, Teams or email, answered on everyone’s own time. If you’d rather play together, TeamBridge runs the live version: a 10-minute trivia round in the meeting you already have, with the questions on everyone’s screen and a leaderboard after every question.
Trivia is included with a TeamBridge pass: $299 for 7 days or $499 for 12 months, for up to 200 players. Scribble, Codenames and five more games are free.
Trivia, live in the meeting
Trivia: The answer to “Which colour pill does Neo take?” is revealed: four of five got Red and Priya leads the standings with 963 
Five Clues: Clue 3 of 5 for “An invention” is up: Priya and Aisha already got it while Marcus types his guess 
Close Enough: Betting on the guesses for the first crossword puzzle: most of the team piles chips on Sofia’s 1910

Short enough for the end of a weekly meeting, long enough to crown a winner.
