Short answer
Quiz games for Zoom work best through a browser room: the host creates the game, shows a QR code, players answer on phones, and the call stays open for discussion.
Why quiz works in Zoom
A quiz does not require personal disclosure and fits coworkers, family, and friends. It is a low-risk first round.
How to run a round
The host opens a room, players join from phones, answers are collected, and the group talks through funny mistakes after each round.
How to make it less like a test
Mix classic trivia with music, geography, 100 to 1, or voting games. Variety keeps the call social.
