Game Strategy

How To Make Your Own Games

Playing games is fun, adds character, and gets listeners involved. Contestants like to play for prizes but many listeners love to simply play along on the air. There are a ton of games to choose from, but the best source could be creating your own games.

How to Make Your Own Games

A Google search will reveal thousands of trivia questions. Find a theme and make a Question/Answer game out of it. 

Turn a list or survey into a game. Using lists and surveys as content is not a great practice. It’s lazy show prep. But surveys can be the source of great content!
