Explanation of how to play this game

The history quiz should be very easy to play. Simply click on one of the links to the different games to start (the book for the easy game, the map for the medium-difficulty game, or the deck of cards for the hardest), and you'll see the list of all the questions within that game.

Then, click on "Start" to go to the first question.

Some questions have fill-in boxes for text, others have radio buttons or checkboxes to select. In every question, some answer must be filled in before moving on to the next question. Guesses are fine, there's no scoring or penalty for incorrect answers. This game is intended to be educational, fun and informative.
