Multi-client-quiz-game

This repo is an implementation of a multiplayer quiz game using socket programming.

Introduction

TCP/IP was used to create the application stack. Python was chosen, due to its easy to code nature.

Rules:

  1. Game starts once the maximum number of players have joined.
  2. Questions are sent to the players with options.
  3. Players need to answer the question within 60 secs.
  4. If a player fails to answer within the time limit or answers with the wrong answer, the player will get kicked out.
  5. At the end, players who have answered all the questions can see the leaderboard. The leaderboard is set according to the average time taken by a player to answer a question.
