<p>I don't know about open source, but as I understand it, Kahoot!, Google Forms, Poll Everywhere, Slido, and Mentimeter are all integrable into Google Slides, and all have free tiers that allow you to do what you are asking for.</p>

[**PINGO**](https://trypingo.com/) might suit your needs (see also the [list of features](https://trypingo.com/en/features/)). The project is (or was) associated with the German Universität Paderborn.

The [source code](https://github.com/PingoUPB/PINGOWebApp) is available and licensed under the Eclipse Public License v1.0 (which is an [OSI-approved](https://opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical) open source license).

A (German) [blog post](https://blogs.uni-paderborn.de/pingo/opensource/) by the PINGO developers mentions that using the source code, you can technically host an instance yourself, however, they don't offer any support.
