For the love of God.....I can't figure out how to create a matching game in PowerPoint. If anyone here has done it before, please show me the steps from A-Z. What about any other games besides Jeopardy? I can do a really good Jeopardy game but I'm so sick of it by now.

Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure that you can using PPT. I'm assuming that you're trying to pull up pictures in some kind of random order? I don't think PPT is actually capable of doing that as when you custom animations they are sequenced in a linear fashion i.e. one after the other in the order you've customed them. There may be some way of doing it, but I don't know how.

You would have to program the slides by getting into the macros and using the Random function. It would involve putting the slide clicked into memory, and then calling a function to match the next slide clicked. There's more, but it seems like it would take too much time for what it's worth.

Do you mean like This? Just go to Play - Games on my site for a whole pile of these...

But I've also made all kinds of ppt games. Scroll to the bottom of the games page or click Resources and go to powerpoint games. Big Bang / Price is /Right / Golden Bell / Top 5 are all good games to use in class other than jeopardy. The arcade has cool games too....
