Education & LearningFree planFree plan; Pro $14.99/mo

Gimkit is a game-based learning platform where students answer questions to earn virtual currency, which they spend on power-ups inside the game. Unlike a one-off quiz, a Gimkit session can run for a whole lesson, and students keep playing because the game itself is rewarding. Teachers see live data on who is answering and what they are getting wrong.

Key Features

  • Game modes where answers earn in-game currency
  • Live dashboard of student progress and accuracy
  • Homework assignments with game modes
  • Question sets from the library or built by teachers
  • Student-created kits for peer study
  • Google Classroom integration

How it works

Teachers build question sets, called kits, or copy from the library, then choose a game mode such as a team battle, a floor-is-lava challenge, or a trust-no-one mode. Gimkit works live in class and as homework assignments, and it integrates with Google Classroom. The platform also lets students create their own kits, which works well as a study activity.

The free plan includes basic game modes with limits on assignments and data. Gimkit Pro costs $14.99 per month and unlocks all game modes, unlimited assignments, and full reports. Schools can buy a site licence. It is best for teachers who want review to run itself while they watch the data come in.
