What is Balloon Siege?
Balloon Siege is a tower-defence game. You build towers along the balloon paths and use right quiz answers to pay for upgrades. Balloons split when they pop, so keep them from slipping through.
It is one of the mini-games built into Qwiz Rush (sometimes written Quiz Rush), the free live quiz you host from a browser while players join by code on their own devices.
