History Review Game: Teacher Guide

A no-prep, no-signup, fully anonymous review game. Open guessarium.com/classroom on the projector.

Two ways to play

Review: the AI guesses

  1. Pick a unit below and choose Review.
  2. As a class, secretly agree on one event from the unit.
  3. Answer the AI's yes/no questions honestly (Yes · No · Don't know · Probably · Probably not).
  4. See if it can name your event, then discuss what gave it away.

Reverse: students investigate

  1. Pick a unit and choose Reverse.
  2. The AI hides a secret event from that unit.
  3. Students take turns asking yes/no questions to narrow it down.
  4. Name the event in as few questions as possible. Great for teaching inquiry.

Units available

  • The Ancient World: Antiquity through the fall of Rome: empires, and the classical age.
  • The Medieval World: Sieges, plagues, and the long centuries between Rome and the Renaissance.
  • Early Modern (1500 to 1800): Exploration, revolution, and empire, from the Age of Sail to the industrial dawn.
  • The Modern World (1800 to present): Industry, world wars, and the events that shaped today's world.
  • All of History: Any era, anywhere: a mixed review or an end-of-year challenge.

Privacy: for your records

No accounts. No logins. No names, emails, or per-student tracking of any kind. The game stores only anonymous questions and answers to improve the AI. Nothing a student types is linked to them, at any age. As with any open-ended tool, a teacher should preview and facilitate; content is drawn from real historical events, some of which are mature.
