Addiction
I have a confession to make. Over the holidays I overindulged. Not just in the obvious, like candy and eggnog (not really the later), but in game time. On my phone.
The reason: Trivia Crack by Etermax. The name pretty much says it all.
The trivia game, which is very well done and highly addictive, pitches people (friends & family or random strangers) against each other, trying to answer questions from six categories – Art, Entertainment, Science, History, Geography and Sport.
The questions range from simple to who-could-have-known. (Answer: My dad, who is kicking my butt.)
Along the way to victory there are timed challenges, a few obscure questions and lots of “What is the capital of…?”
From a design point the game is done extremely well and the fact that it has claimed the top FREE Game spots in Android’s Play Store and Apple’s App Store for the last few weeks only underlines it’s widespread addicting capabilities.
The characters that one needs to acquire are extremely cute in appearance – think back to “Dumb Ways to Die”.
Oh and did I mention the game can be played in multiple languages? So you can play against friends and family overseas or just have a guessing match with your brother-in-law in Catalan – if you are so inclined…
Have some time left to waste and want to (im)prove your common knowledge? Give Trivia Crack a try. But don’t say you haven’t been warned.
