Brainpardy mode

Brainpardy.

Jeopardy-style 5×5 grid. Daily Doubles. A Final round where the trailing team can wager it all and steal the night. The mode that turns a corporate offsite into the only photo on next year's recap deck.

The Brainpardy 5x5 board on the venue TV: categories, gold dollar values, team scores

Captured from a live game

How a Brainpardy game runs

Five steps. Most of the work happens before doors open.

01

Pick five categories

Generic ("Music," "Geography") or hyper-specific ("Things our CFO has said in standup"). The board takes both.

02

Load 25 clues

Pull them from the question bank, back a column with a Cellar pack, or have the brains at Brainflood build a category from a one-line brief. Pick how many Daily Doubles to hide.

03

Players pick cells, you grade

Teams buzz in on their phones and the first buzz types an answer. You grade it, or let Auto Assist suggest a verdict you confirm. A miss opens a steal. Score updates on the projector. The classic rhythm, with the math handled.

04

Daily Double drama

Hidden cells reveal a wager prompt. Only the team that picked it answers, and it can bet up to its score (or the board's top value, if that is bigger). The right wager turns a fourth-place team into a contender.

05

Final Brainpardy

One question, one wager. Teams bet up to their full score, then see the clue and type their answer. The quiet moment while every table types is the best moment of the night, every time.

What makes it shine

5×5 grid that feels like the show

Five categories, five values per column ($200 to $1000), buzzer rules on selection. Every clue is open-answer: read aloud, typed in, no multiple-choice options to lean on. The format your audience already knows, no rules slide required.

Daily Doubles, hidden on the board

Pick how many. They land at random, never on the cheapest row, and stay hidden until a team picks the cell. One good wager is a comeback path.

Final Brainpardy with team wagers

Trailing team can bet everything. The leader can play it safe or go for the kill. Strategy as much as knowledge.

Live grid preview while you build

The creator renders your Brainpardy grid in real time as you tune it. Daily Doubles land at random each time the board launches. Back any column with a Cellar pack under your own label ("Chart Toppers" from the 80s pack) and it re-draws fresh clues every time you launch the board. Event Builder can draft a wedding or company-history board from a short description; you spend the rest of Tuesday tweaking, not building from blank.

Voice-assist clue reading

Auto Assist can read clues aloud on the TV in your chosen voice. Useful when you've been talking for an hour and your throat's gone.

Dress the board for the night

Pick a palette and a skin for the game. On Pro your logo goes on the display; Business goes full white-label for the company you're hosting. Doubles as their internal-comms photo op.
