Gimkit
Description
Gimkit is a web-based classroom game show platform used for delivering quiz-based learning activities in which students answer questions to earn in-game currency.
The platform operates through live games hosted by a teacher, with students joining sessions on their own devices using a game code. Question sets, referred to as kits, can be created manually by educators, imported from existing question banks, or generated from uploaded materials.
During gameplay, students answer multiple-choice questions and accumulate virtual currency that can be spent on power-ups, upgrades, or strategic items depending on the selected game mode. Multiple game modes are available, including team-based, individual, and themed modes such as Fishtopia and Trust No One.
Gimkit is used in primary, secondary, and higher education settings for formative assessment, revision sessions, and content review across a range of subjects. The service provides reporting features that allow teachers to view student performance data, including question-level accuracy and overall scores, which can be used to identify gaps in understanding.
A free tier offers limited features, while paid subscriptions provide access to additional game modes, larger class sizes, and assignment functionality that allows students to complete kits independently outside of live sessions.
