Knowledge Royale

Knowledge Royale is the platform's main multiplayer mode: a real-time elimination quiz where 2-30 players compete at once, answering AI-generated questions from material the host shares. The fastest correct answers earn the most points each round, while the slowest players and the wrong answers get cut in waves. Rounds run until one player is left. It plays more like a game show than a quiz, and it's the StudyQuest game that classrooms and study groups get loudest over.

Hosting is straightforward. Someone with an account uploads shared material, the AI builds a question bank, and players join with a room code on any device. Once the host starts, rounds begin within seconds. No lobby grind, no per-round setup. That low friction is the difference between playing Knowledge Royale twice a semester and twice a week.

The competition is hard in a productive way. When you study alone, you can fudge whether you really knew an answer. Here your answer is logged, scored against everyone else's, and on the leaderboard immediately. That's much closer to exam conditions than a solo review session, which is why students who play the week before a test tend to say they feel more prepared.

The 30-player ceiling makes it work for full classrooms, large study groups, online communities, and event-style review. Small groups of 4-12 work great too. The elimination rounds compress and the final showdown comes faster. Groups of 15 or more feel more like a tournament. Both are accounted for in the design.
