Survival + whole-class quiz game
Crowd Clash
Students move as a group to choose answers in Survival, Class Mode, or Party Jam, making review feel quick, social, and easy to run.
What Is This Game?
Crowd Clash is a whole-class ESL movement quiz. Students answer by moving into large answer zones together, so teachers can turn vocabulary review, listening checks, and classroom warmups into a fast group activity.
How Students Play
2. Students choose a zone
Students move left or right together to show their answer before the timer ends.
3. The class gets feedback
MotJAM checks the selected zone, awards points for correct choices, and shows the correct answer.
Game Modes
Survival
Recommended default. Everyone must choose the correct side; any wrong-side participation loses the round. Best for clear classroom rules and high focus.
Class Mode
The strongest class answer becomes the choice. Best for large groups, quick checks, and majority-style review.

Motion activity matters more than standing position, creating a team-vs-team party feel. Best for celebrations, end-of-class review, and energetic groups.
