The rounds
Every round is the same shape: a question on everyone's phone, everyone answers there, then the answer and the scores. What changes is what the question is made of.
Accents
A short clip of someone speaking plays out loud. The room guesses which country they are from. This is the round that gets tables arguing with each other, and it is the one people describe to their friends afterwards. Plays on each player's phone, so ask the room to turn their volume up.
Flags
A flag on screen, name the country. The fastest round to understand, so it is the usual opener — a cold room is scoring within seconds and nobody needs the rules explained.
Capitals
A capital city on screen, name the country it belongs to. Steady and fair — no pictures, no audio, and almost everyone can play it.
Landmarks
A photo of a famous place, name the country. Visual and instant.
Food & Drink
A photo of a dish, name the country it comes from. Food talk breaks the ice quickly, and it tends to start conversations at the table rather than just scoring.
Wildlife
A photo of an animal, name the country it lives in. A gentle round that plays well with mixed ages.
Where in the World
A mix of the picture rounds above — flags, landmarks, food and wildlife shuffled together. Pick this when you want variety without building it yourself.
Trivia
Straight general knowledge, four answers, no pictures or sound. The closest thing to a traditional pub quiz round.
My Round — your own questions
Questions you write yourself, about your own venue. "What year did we open?" People love these and they are the reason a regular feels like a regular. You need at least three for it to run as its own round.
How a night runs
- You set it up in your dashboard — how many rounds, what each one is, how long a question stays up, and how long the break between rounds lasts.
- People join by scanning the QR on your poster or table cards. No app, no sign-up, no account. It opens in their phone browser.
- You start each round when your room is ready. Nothing starts without you, so you can hold a break until everyone is back from the bar.
- Each question goes up on every phone with a timer. Everyone answers on their phone.
- The answer shows, then the scores, then the next question.
- Between rounds the TV shows the running leaderboard.
- At the end the final leaderboard stays on the TV. If the top score is level and you turned a tie-break on, one last question settles it.
A quiz night earns in the gaps, not the questions — the break is when the room goes to the bar. That is why you own the timing and we do not.
What your customers see
They scan, type a name, and they are in. The phone shows the answer buttons, their score, and where they are on the table. Nothing to install and nothing to pay for.
At the end they are shown where they finished, and — if they have played in more than one place — where they stand across every Accentle venue. That is what makes them take the game home, which is also how you earn (see below).
What the TV shows
Open one page on whatever already drives your screen — a laptop, a stick, the TV's own browser — and leave it. It shows the join QR before you start, then the running leaderboard between rounds and at the end. The questions are on every phone. You never have to touch it during the night.
Group nights (Enterprise)
If your venue belongs to a group, head office can set one night that every venue plays — the same questions and the same clock everywhere, so one leaderboard across the whole group actually means something.
You still control your own room. Head office sets the questions and the timing; you decide when each round starts. Your own final leaderboard stays on your own TV, and your venue's position across the group is shown next to it.
How you earn
Your QR codes, your link and your printed cards all carry the same code. When a player comes to the game on it, what they buy is credited to you — 50% of net. One tier: you earn on your own patrons' purchases, nothing on anyone they refer.
First code wins, and it stays won. Once someone arrives on your code they are counted as yours, and what they buy later counts too — that night, or months from now, at your venue or at home. Free to join, nothing to sell. Add a PayPal address under EARN in your dashboard to be paid; balances pay out from $20 and a sale settles as set out in the terms.
Know another venue that would do well with this? A partner who refers one can earn a bonus of their own — see /partners/ for how that works.
