A little less obvious.

Pick one correct answer. The less obvious, the higher the score.

Seven questions. Thirty seconds each.

Pick one.
Find the less obvious.

Four options. More than one can be correct. Pick just one: a less obvious correct answer earns more points. Scores appear after you choose. Recall challenge lets you type an answer and keeps its own best score.

A round of seven

Multiple choice shows four options. More than one can be correct: pick just one. Your first click ends that question, and the score is revealed afterward. You can skip for 0 points.

Accepted answers earn 25, 50, 75, or 100 points. These are editorial tiers, not live player statistics. There is no speed bonus.

Recall challenge lets you type one answer instead. It keeps a separate best score. An unlisted input earns 0, but is not automatically marked factually wrong. Read the feedback, then choose the next question.

The timer continues while this dialog is open and while the tab is hidden. Refreshing ends your round.

The right answer has company.

A question might ask for one of the original thirteen US states, an element, or a novel from a defined series. Several options can be correct. Pick just one and try to recognize a less obvious answer.

Room for the uncommon

Each checked answer earns 25, 50, 75, or 100 points. Scores are editorial tiers, not live player statistics.

Our launch collection contains 60 checked questions. Multiple choice has four shuffled options, with points hidden until you pick. For a harder recall test, choose Recall challenge and type an answer without seeing options. Each mode keeps its own best score.
