How to Play Clickable Quizzes

How the Clickable format works - identifying and clicking parts of an image or diagram.

Key Takeaways
  • Clickable quizzes show an image or diagram - click the labelled parts to answer
  • Questions are shown one at a time; you click directly on the image to respond
  • Great for anatomy, maps, labeled diagrams, and identification challenges
  • Zoom controls help with precision on detailed images

What is a Clickable quiz?

A Clickable quiz shows you a labelled image - such as an anatomy diagram, a map with no labels, a sports pitch, or a technical schematic - and asks you to click on specific parts of it. Each question directs you to click a region, structure, or location directly on the image. There is no text input. Browse Clickable quizzes to see this format in action.

How to play a Clickable quiz - step by step

  1. Open a Clickable quiz and click Play Quiz.
  2. An image appears on screen. A question or label prompt tells you what to click - for example, "Click the liver" or "Click where Italy is".
  3. Click (or tap on mobile) the part of the image you believe matches the question.
  4. The quiz marks your click as correct or incorrect and shows the actual correct location if you missed.
  5. Advance to the next question. Continue until all questions are answered.
  6. The results screen shows your score, the correct click location for every question, and your leaderboard position.

How does click accuracy work?

Like Map quizzes, Clickable quizzes use an acceptance zone around the correct location. Clicks within that zone count as correct. The zone size varies depending on how detailed or small the target is. Large organs or big countries have generous zones; small labels on a technical diagram require more precise clicking.

Tips for Clickable quizzes

  • Zoom in if available - on detailed images, zooming in before clicking dramatically improves your precision, especially for small targets.
  • Scan the full image first - take a moment to orient yourself before the first question. Knowing the general layout of the diagram or map makes each click faster and more confident.
  • Use relative position - even if you are not certain of an exact location, you can often use landmarks on the image to triangulate. The liver is below the lungs and above the stomach, for example.
  • Learn from misses - the correct location always appears after a wrong click. Pay attention to exactly where it was - this is the most efficient way to learn the layout for the next attempt.
Tip: Clickable quizzes on Science topics (human anatomy, cell biology, periodic table layouts) are among the most educational quiz types on DoQuizzes. Replaying a body systems quiz three to four times is equivalent to a solid study session.

How is scoring calculated?

Each correct click earns base points. On timed Clickable quizzes, a speed bonus applies for faster correct answers. See How Quiz Scoring Works for the full details. Your XP increases with every completed quiz.

Clickable vs Map quizzes

Both Clickable and Map quizzes use click-to-answer mechanics, but they differ in scope. Map quizzes use a real geographic map of the world or a region. Clickable quizzes use any image - an anatomy diagram, a football pitch, a car engine, a star chart. If the image is a geographic map, it is typically a Map quiz; if it is a custom diagram or zoomed image, it is Clickable. See the full comparison at Quiz Formats.
