We all know Kahoot is technically supposed to be a fair and fun game of knowledge and speed. But let’s be real—sometimes you just want to win.
Whether it’s a friendly rivalry in class or a full-on showdown with coworkers, there’s no shame in wanting to dominate the leaderboard (okay, maybe a little shame… but we’ll ignore that for now).
So, if you’re tired of coming in second or worse, mid-pack, I’ve got some sneaky little secrets that’ll give you the edge you need to Kahoot your way to glory.
Buckle up, because we’re diving into some of the best (and slightly cheeky) Kahoot winner tricks that might just give you an unfair advantage.

Speed Is Everything—Prep Your Fingers
Kahoot rewards the fastest correct answer. That means you don’t just need to know the right answer—you need to tap it faster than everyone else.
Here’s the trick: hover your finger or mouse over the next button before it appears.
If you’ve played Kahoot enough, you know the order of the answers is often predictable. Train your eyes to scan the colour-shape combinations and trust your gut. Shave off milliseconds with every question, and you’ll be climbing that leaderboard like a boss.
Learn The Patterns (Yes, There Are Patterns)
Believe it or not, many Kahoot creators follow predictable patterns. Maybe they alternate correct answers or use “All of the above” a little too often. Keep an eye out for recurring trends in how questions are written or where answers tend to show up. Once you spot a pattern, exploit it!
Bonus tip: If you’re playing with a teacher or quiz master who’s not too creative, go back and review their old Kahoots—there might be repeat questions. I’ve noticed this a lot while browsing quiz breakdowns on kahootwinner.es.
Dual-Device Mode
This one’s a classic trick: use two devices. On one device (like your phone), you’re playing the game. On the other (like a tablet or laptop), you’re searching for the answers in real-time or even watching someone else’s screen (sneaky, I know).
And if it’s an open-book game? That second screen becomes your ultimate weapon.
Kahoot Bots (Warning: Use At Your Own Risk)
Okay, this is where we get into “unfair” territory. There are Kahoot bot generators out there that can flood a game with fake users or even auto-answer for you. But beware: this will get you kicked out or banned if you’re caught. Still, it’s worth knowing it exists—for, you know… educational purposes. 😉
Stay Calm & Focused
This might sound boring, but it’s a secret weapon. Most players get flustered under pressure. If you can stay calm, even when the leaderboard shifts or you drop a place, you’ll be able to think, tap faster, and avoid silly mistakes. Confidence is the ultimate Kahoot hack.
Final Words
Look, I’m not saying you should go full villain mode. But if you do decide to unleash some of these tricks during your next game, just remember: with great Kahoot power comes great Kahoot responsibility.
Have fun out there—and if anyone asks why you’re suddenly unbeatable, just give them a mysterious smile and say, “I guess I’m just that good.”
