I made it with Google Slides, so it also works with Power Point. However, to avoid bugs, I recommend that after downloading it you 'save it as Google Slides' and then use it. If you do not know how to do, you can use this link to download the Google Slides version:

The goal is to make them better understand comparatives and superlatives. For this reason, I ask the students to do a short review on their own (2-3 minutes) before starting.
What is the quiz about:
The quiz consists of 4 questions + 1. It is about Tim, a very annoying and capricious child who wants something. The students' goal is to figure out 4 times what Tim wishes for. Then, unfortunately, Tim is killed by someone. The final question is to figure out who the killer is.
Items needed:
computer, monitor, small sheets of paper (How many? Students number / 4 and then x5).
How to play:
ask students to form groups of 3~4 people (if there are groups of 2 or 5 it is not a problem, try to distribute them). Give each group 4 sheets of paper and ask them to write the number of their group. During the quiz game they have to answer using the piece of paper. Each group must think to give only one answer (they must cooperate). Each correct answer is 1 point. When they finish answering the fourth question, the students think the game is over. At that moment Tim's murder takes place. Then, give them another sheet of paper and get ready for the last question, the most difficult one (worth 2 points). At the end, announce the winner.
Note:
During the quiz game I try to play Tim, reading the sentences using an extremely annoying childish voice. My students had a great time. Of course, feel free to change anything you want. If we are going too fast, after receiving all the answers but before revealing the right one, I explain each sentence to them to slow down the pace and arrive at the correct answer together. The real goal is not to make the groups compete with each other, but to make them understand the comparative and superlative in depth.
Enjoy
