SMARTY PANTS™
Stay & Play™ Trivia Night Challenge
THE ALPINE HOMESTEAD™
Master audio is off by default so nobody gets startled. Captions stay on no matter what — the show is fully playable muted. Host narration uses your browser's built-in voice if available; if not, you'll still see every line as text.
Warming up the cabin…
The questions didn't load
This usually means the page was opened directly from a file (file://). Browsers block questions.json that way.
Fix: run a tiny local web server from this folder, then open the address it gives you. The README has copy-paste commands (look for "How to run locally").
An original game-night show, hosted by Buck.
Pick a mode, pick your categories, and let the scoreboard decide who packed brains and who only packed socks. Plays great out loud or totally silent.
Each question: Buck sets it up, the question and four answers appear, a timer runs, you lock in an answer, and the scoreboard reacts. Right answers pay out; wrong ones cost you. There's a Hot Cocoa Break in the longer games, and every match ends at the Final Fire Pit, where you wager part of your bank on one last question.
Winner Buys Dinner™
Future add-on: let guests order pizza, wings, groceries, dinner, snacks, or local favorites from game night. Delivery, pickup coupons, affiliate links, local food sponsors, and winner food rewards can be added by location. Availability varies.
Some food links may be sponsored, affiliate, or advertising links. Availability varies by location. No real orders are placed in this demo.
