How it plays

Eight destinations. One cinematic journey.

Around the World turns a pub quiz into a global tour. The big screen shows each destination as if the pub itself just landed there — cinematic visuals, ambient sound, and an AI-generated narrative that ties the whole journey together. The questions are real quiz questions; the production around them turns it into an event.

🛬

Touch Down

First destination revealed on the big screen with cinematic visuals and a short AI narrative ("Welcome to Marrakesh. The medina sleeps until..."). The journey begins.

❓

Four Rounds Per Stop

Each destination has four short rounds — geography, culture, food, music — each tied to that specific place. AI generates fresh questions per fixture.

✈️

Travel Onward

After each destination, a short transition narrative bridges to the next stop. Players see their running totals. The journey continues for 8 stops.

🌐

Journey's End

After 8 destinations, the platform tallies. Top teams or players appear on a final cinematic "journey home" screen. AI generates a short verdict on the journey itself.

Why it lands

Why cinematic changes a quiz.

Most pub quizzes are functionally identical — questions, answers, leaderboard. The categories might change but the format doesn't. Around the World is the format we built when we asked: what if a quiz felt like a TV show? The visual production transforms the room's engagement.

🎬

Cinematic destination visuals

Each of the 8 destinations gets its own visual treatment on the big screen — Marrakesh souks, Tokyo neon, the Brazilian Amazon. Built for impact, not just decoration.

📖

AI-generated narrative

A short narrative thread ties each destination into the journey. Generated fresh per game, so no two nights feel identical. The narrator voice is the consistent character across the journey.

🎯

Four-category questions per stop

Geography, culture, food, music — every destination tests all four. Players who travel well, watch documentaries, and listen to world music all have angles to win.

🌐

Fresh destinations every game

AI selects different destinations every fixture. Run it weekly and never repeat. Famous capitals one week, surprising deep-cuts the next.

🎵

Music sourced from each destination

The music round genuinely plays music FROM that destination — Brazilian samba in Rio, K-pop in Seoul, French chanson in Paris. Lands as cultural authenticity, not decoration.

👥

Teams or individual

Format scales — works for solo players on a Tuesday night, works for teams of friends on a Saturday booking. Same journey, different scoring.

Questions, answered

Around the World FAQs.

When does Around the World launch?

Currently in active development with a launch window in the next few months. Email the venue team for early access — beta venues get the game free during testing.

Does the platform actually show TV-quality cinematic visuals?

Yes — that's the core of the format. Big-screen visuals per destination, designed to look like a travel documentary intro. The production is the differentiation.

Where do the questions come from?

AI generates fresh questions for each destination, every game. Geography, culture, food, and music — all calibrated to the specific destination. No two games ask the same questions.

Do guests need to download an app?

No. Players scan a QR code or enter a short game code at epicly.live in any phone browser. Joining takes five seconds.

How long is the full journey?

40-50 minutes for 8 destinations including transitions and the final journey-home wrap-up. Designed to feel like a TV show episode, not a quiz session.

Can we run a regional version (Europe only, Asia only)?

Yes — host can set a regional theme. Useful for venues with culturally-specific themed nights or events tied to particular World Cups, festivals, or holiday seasons.

What hardware does the venue need?

A screen the room can see (this game NEEDS a good screen — the cinematic visuals are the star), a connected device, and venue WiFi.

Will the music be properly licensed?

Around the World plays official iTunes 30-second preview clips for its music rounds, the same model as Music Mayhem and Music Bingo. As long as your venue holds standard UK pub licensing (PPL/PRS via TheMusicLicence), public music playback is covered.
