A ready-made film-tv and pop-culture quiz that you can use in virtual and in-person events (Zoom, Teams, YouTube Live, Twitch, conferences, meetings, classrooms, etc.)
Test your nostalgia with a 12-question throwback to the most iconic animated shows of the 1980s. Perfect for teams who grew up on Saturday-morning cartoons and synthy theme songs.
Welcome to the ultimate 80s Cartoons team challenge—built for group play, not solo! Duplicate this quiz with a single click and host it in minutes on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, YouTube Live, Twitch, Kick, or any in-person event. Split into teams, have a host read each question and options aloud, and give 15–30 seconds for discussion before locking in answers. Mix in friendly banter, keep score as you go, and watch for built-in leaderboard moments to spark mini showdowns and momentum shifts. For pacing, try 2–3 rounds, quick recaps after every 4 questions, and optional lifelines like “Double Points” or “Poll the Room.” In case of a tie, finish with a sudden-death lightning question or a closest-to-number bonus.
