Free Storyline 2 Template: Blockbusters Style Quiz Game
Sep 08, 2015
Hi Everyone,
The E-Learning community here is so generous with sharing free resources for everybody that I wanted to give something back. It took a while to develop something that hadn't already been done, but I think I now have something that I want to share. So here is my Blockbusters Style Quiz Game Template for Storyline 2!
Using this template you will be able to quickly and easily generate your own Blockbusters style quiz. The game is designed to be played individually or as a single team, with the objective of getting from one side of the letters board to the other without blocking your route. I have included some fairly easy questions in the template to demonstrate its functionality, as well as some fun sound effects and music to bring it all together.
I have created a quick and easy guide on my website for those looking to customise the template using their own questions: https://www.discoverelearninguk.com/free-articulate-storyline-2-template-blockbusters-style-quiz-game/
You can see the end product here: https://www.discoverelearninguk.com (directly below the main slider)
And I have attached a link to the Storyline file to this blog post, hopefully it will also be included on the E-Learning Heroes downloads page soon.
Thank you and enjoy the template,
Chris

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your generosity and great effort in bringing this fun quiz to the community! I failed first time in the quiz but I kind of like it! Looks quite challenging to produce the quiz!
Chris, thanks for sharing! This is a great example of what Storyline can do when you know how to use all the bells and whistles (I'm still learning). Coming from a background in Presenter 09 to Storyline 2, I'm still amazed every day with the interactivity that can be built using just one slide in Storyline.
Thank you for the kind words, Melanie.
I hope you find the template easy enough to customize for your needs. Just send me a message if you need anything in particular (chris@chdigitalsolutions.co.uk)
Fantastic! Anyone of a "certain" age (like me!) will totally get this and love it. Good effort
Sweet game, Chris! I just updated the e-learning challenge recap to feature your game and blog post: https://community.articulate.com/articles/elearning-games-recap#ChrisHodgson
Hi Chris! I just realized I forgot to let you know I added your template to our downloads hub last week. Thanks so much for sharing this awesome resource with the community!
Thank you so much Kelly, I am over the moon about this!
Forgive the belated contribution to this thread but when I first saw Chris's great game a couple of month's ago I set about trying to recreate it in PowerPoint. I've managed to produce a version with the same 5x3 grid but the questions are MC (3 options) and feedback is given on right and wrong answers. Also moves up or down are allowed to bypass blocks. It works well but has a daunting number of slides. As someone who is planning to get Storyline in the New Year, I imagine that it would have been easier to have waited!!?
Hi Chris,
This is really excellent. Thanks for sharing. Quick question, I want to include this in one of my modules for my clients, however they would not want the CH Professional Digital Solutions logo appearing on the quiz. Is there anyway to remove this or does it have to stay?
Kind Regards
Naeem
Hi Naeem
You can hide or delete the logo layer in SL.
Chris
Hi Chris,
Many thanks. Somehow I can't seem to find or get to the layer to delete.
Kind Regards
Naeem
Hi Chris - I've tried locating the layer and logo and just can't find it. Could you please point on into the direction where it could be?
Thanks
Naeem
Hi Chris, I have included the game in an e-learning course, but am having a problem with publishing it. When I preview it it works fine, but when I go to publish it it goes straight to the end after one question. I published just your download and had the same problem. Any suggestions on how this can be fixed? Have others had the same problem? Many thanks for any help you provide.
Regards, Yvonne
Hi Yvonne,
I have only been able to replicate the issue when publishing to HTML5.
I am guessing that activating triggers based on objects states does not work as well as it does when publishing to Flash, because the slide is supposed to check that the three columns of letter hexagons are in the 'Incorrect' state before loading the Loser layer - but in HTML5 it loads the layer automatically even if only one object is in the incorrect state.
If you really need to have an HTML5 version of your course, you might need to try creating a series of true/false variables for each of the questions (ie. isAQuestionCorrect) and then trigger the state change when the base slide reloads (you will also need to change the actions that trigger the Loser layer to load).
Best of luck!
Thanks for that Chris. I appreciate your quick response. I will have a play
with the variables.
Cheers,
Yvonne
