More about this game
This endless trivia game asks you to judge statements as true or false. Before answering, you select a confidence level: Not Sure (x1), Pretty Sure (x2), or Absolutely (x3). This multiplier affects both the points you gain for a correct answer and the points you lose for a wrong one. You start with 3 lives, and losing all of them ends the run. The difficulty increases as you level up, which happens naturally by answering questions and building long streaks of correct answers.
Tips
- Use the 'Absolutely' confidence level only when you are certain, as a wrong answer costs 2 lives instead of 1.
- Build a streak of correct answers to earn bonus points, which are awarded every 3 consecutive correct answers and scale up.
- Pay attention to the explanations provided after each answer to learn and improve your trivia knowledge, as some categories repeat patterns.
Questions
How do I lose lives?
You lose 1 life for an incorrect answer on 'Not Sure' or 'Pretty Sure' confidence, and 2 lives if you are wrong on 'Absolutely'. The game ends when your 3 lives run out.
How does the scoring work exactly?
The base score starts at 10 points and increases with your level up to a cap. This base, plus any streak bonuses, is multiplied by your chosen confidence level (x1, x2, or x3).
How do I level up?
Your level increases based on the total number of questions you have answered divided by four, plus additional levels gained from the length of your current correct answer streak.
