Create funny riddles based on GIF

There are many ways to create a fun game with challenging riddles. Today, let me show you one: Use GIF files to challenge your players to find answers quickly! It looks like this:

In both cases, there’s a 15-second timer. The top picture reveals itself as the GIF shows the solution block by block, tile by tile. The player will only have a partial image, but if they answer correctly in time, they’ll get points.

Note that the faster they answer, the more they get points. Challenging!

How to convert create GIF?

To create GIF files, I personally use Clipchamp which is the video editing software native to Windows. If your video lasts less than 15 seconds, then you can export your project into a GIF file. Otherwise, you can also create your own video, then convert it in a Video-to-GIF converter like Format Factory (on Windows).
