What happens after you join
Gimkit join is built for speed. You are not creating an account or downloading anything. The code connects you to one live room that your teacher controls.
After you enter the code, you wait in the lobby until the host starts. Then questions appear when the teacher pushes them live. Pick an answer, earn virtual money, and climb the scoreboard.
Wrong answers can cost money in Classic mode. Knockout removes you after one miss. Your teacher picks the rules before the game starts.
