Thanks so much to Elizabeth Pawlicki for doing that great E-Learning Heroes webinar on building a Jeopardy-style game. I 'm incorporating such a game into one of my E-Learning courses!
A colleague asked me if there's a way for the learner to replay the game without having to exit the course - in other words, resetting the game back to the starting point?
Glad you like the Jeopardy game. You could add a button on the final slide with a trigger to "Restart Course" when the user clicks that button. That'll reset the quiz and take the user back to the beginning.
Hi Elizabeth! The game is going to come as the last scene in a course. So really, the game will be embedded in a multi-scene SL course. It'll be the last scene within the course. I'm thinking we don't need restart the course - rather, allow the learner to reset the game while in the scene, still staying in the course.
Hi Elizabeth! Just tried to import the jeopardy game into my course SL file as a new scene and it's not working - links messed up, Results slide missing, etc. I tried importing the whole game at once as well as one or two slides at a time. Not working.
Hope I won't have to rebuild all the triggers, etc. in the course proper.
Maybe another way would be to provide a link from the main course file to the game file. Not sure how to do this - the course is being posted on our LMS. Is this an LMS Administrator thing?
Hi Elizabeth! - it occurred to me last night to try using the jeopardy game file as my course proper and move all the less complicated content from the original course into the game file. This seems to be working ok. Have a great day!

Good question. You need another layer and another variable but I walked you through it in this Peek: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/149fec2a-3e6b-4cf8-ae3d-f5b0213ba5eb/review . I'm also attaching my game if that helps!
Hi Elizabeth! thanks so much - you are awesome :) Really appreciate the step by step video you did for me. Will let you know how I make out.
Good Morning, Elizabeth! I followed your great instructions and explanations - success! Thanks so much again - you really have a gift for teaching.

Any advice/suggestions will be very valued.
