About This Game

Trivia Quiz is a four-choice knowledge game spanning science, history, everyday life, and 90s retro. Read each question, pick from four answers, and bank a point for every one you get right. Nothing is on a clock, so the questions stay bite-sized without ever being frantic — a full round fits neatly into a coffee break, and you can take five, ten or twenty-five at a time, or a themed ten-question deck when one category is calling. It is a friendly deep-focus pick that rewards curiosity — and an easy way to learn a fact or two while you reset.

Frequently Asked Questions

What topics do the questions cover?
Four categories — science, history, everyday life, and 90s retro. Each language has its own 60-question bank, written for that language rather than translated from English.
How is my score calculated?
One point per correct answer, and that is the entire scoring system. A round ends with your score shown as correct out of total, and your best is kept between sessions.
Is there a time limit per question?
No. There is no clock anywhere in the game, so you can sit on a question as long as you like. The only thing being tested is whether you know the answer.
Will I see the same questions every time?
Questions are drawn from the bank and shuffled, and the four answers are reshuffled on every question too, so repeated plays never settle into the same order.
