Hey Ricky! This is definitely possible with variables! Here's how I would set this up:
Create a numeric variable for each question, i.e. Question1, Question2, and so on. Set the default value of the numeric variable to 3.
On the base layer, add a variable reference: Attempts Remaining: %Question1%. This will display the number of attempts the learner has left.
On the Try Again layer, add a trigger to subtract 1 from the variable when the timeline starts.
On the Incorrect layer, add a trigger to subtract 1 from the variable when the timeline starts. (This will ensure the attempts remaining displays a 0).
Check out the sample file I put together for you, and let me know if you have any questions about it!
You can set the number of attempts in Form View (shown in the screenshot below), but there isn't a way to display the attempts unless you use a variable like I did in the sample I shared.

Hi Alyssa
Thanks, it seems to be fine !
Is there a way to take into account the number of attempt defined for each question (in the question Form) instead of defining the variable value ?
