Let’s walk through it together!
Step-by-Step: How to Make Family Feud Game on Google Slides
1. Choose Your Game Theme
First, decide what kind of Family Feud you want.
Some fun ideas:
- Family Trivia
- School subjects (like math or science)
- Holiday or birthday themes
- Just-for-fun questions
Having a theme makes the game more exciting and personal.
2. Open Google Slides and Set Up Your First Slide
- Go to Google Slides and start with a blank presentation.
- Now, name your file something fun like “My Family Feud Game Night.”
- On the first slide, type in your title. For example: “Welcome to Family Feud!”
Tip: You can add fun emojis, GIFs, or stickers to make it more playful.
3. Make a Question Slide
- On the next slide, write your first question.
- Example: “Name something you bring on a picnic.”
- Below that, create 5-8 blank answer boxes. These will be clickable or animated later.
Tip: Use rectangles or shapes to draw the answer boxes. Write “Answer 1”, “Answer 2”, etc., for now.
4. Add the Real Answers (Hide Them First!)
- Now, type the real answers inside those boxes—but don’t show them right away.
- Instead, cover them using a shape or box that says “Click to Reveal”.
- Example answers might be:
- Sandwiches
- Water bottles
- Blanket
- Fruits
- Games
- You’ll animate these to “appear” when clicked or during your live show!
5. Add Animations to Reveal Answers
Here comes the fun part.
- Click on the cover box, then go to Insert > Animation.
- Choose something like “Fade Out” or “Disappear” when clicked.
- So now, when you click the box during the game, the real answer underneath will show!
- Repeat this for all answer boxes.
6. Add a Scoreboard Slide
- After each round, you might want to track points.
- Create a slide that says “Team Scores”.
- Use text boxes to write team names like “Team A” and “Team B”. Keep the score manually or update it during the game.
- Or, add a fun bar shape and resize it to show who’s leading!
7. Add Sound Effects and Transitions (Optional)
Want to make it even cooler?
You can add:
- Buzz sounds for wrong answers
- Ding sounds for correct ones
- Fun background music
Go to Insert > Audio if you have sound files uploaded on Google Drive.
8. Share and Play the Game!
Now, click Present mode and you’re ready to host!
To play:
- Read the question
- Let teams guess
- Click the boxes to reveal answers
- Update the scores
- Move to the next slide for the next round
You can play on Zoom, Google Meet, or even a TV screen at home.
Bonus Tips:
- Use big text for better visibility
- Keep 5-6 answers per slide for simplicity
- Practice once before playing with others
- Let someone be the “host” to keep it lively
