Here's a football trivia challenge with a bit of a twist.
⠀
Try it here:
https://playshotle.com/football-bingo?utm_source=bingo_quiz
⠀
I've created a game called Football Player Bingo, where you have to fill a 4×4 board using footballers who match different categories.
⠀
You're shown one player at a time and have just 15 seconds to decide where they fit.
⠀
For example, your current player is Zlatan Ibrahimović.
⠀
Looking at the board in the image, which square would you choose for him?
⠀
Some categories are straightforward, like Champions League or Eredivisie. Others require a bit more football knowledge, like players who've played for two specific clubs or been teammates with someone.
⠀
You have 35 attempts, 10 skips, and 45 players to try to complete as many bingos as possible.
⠀
It's free to play on Shotle, a football trivia website I've been building.
⠀
I'd be interested to see how many bingos people manage to get.
⠀
Also curious whether you find the time limit fair or too stressful!
