Looking for a Gimkit alternative?
Gimkit's in-game economy is clever, and it has an AI generator too — but it works from a topic, and its kits still take setup. Tembii generates questions straight from your own lesson material (text, PDF, or photo) and drops them into themed games, so you go from lesson to playable in about five minutes.
