The basics: one question, 30 seconds

Every question has four options and one right answer. Pick yours before the clock runs out; when time's up, it counts as a miss.

  • 30 seconds per question

    The clock runs on our side, so a reload doesn't reset it. Leaving mid-question counts as a miss.

  • The answer, explained

    Right or wrong, you see the correct answer and a short explanation right away.

  • The story behind it

    Every question comes from a story with real, sourced facts. One tap takes you to it.

  • No account to play

    Play as a guest. A free account saves your score, your streak and your medals, and puts you in a league.

Example question
Sports · Soccer 30 s

Which country has won the most FIFA World Cups?

Brazil, with five titles (1958, 1962, 1970, 1994 and 2002).

Ways to play

Five ways in. All of them are free, and you can switch whenever you like.

Scoring: XP, streaks and rating

With a free account, every answer counts toward three things.

  • XP

    Every right answer earns XP, and harder questions earn more. A miss never takes XP away. Your XP sets your level and your place in this week's league.

  • Daily streak

    Answer at least one question a day to keep your streak going. Every 5 days you bank a streak freeze (up to 2) that covers one missed day.

  • Rating

    The global leaderboard uses a rating that goes up with right answers, down with misses, and cools off when you stop playing.

Weekly leagues: from Egg to Golden Duck

Every week you play in a league of up to 30 fans, ranked by the XP you earn that week. When the week ends (Monday, 00:00 UTC), the top 7 move up a level and the bottom 7 move down. Everyone starts in Egg.

Medals and trophies

Each category has its own medal, earned with right answers in that category.

  • Bronze: 10 right answers
  • Silver: 50 right answers
  • Gold: 150 right answers

Trophies are for everything else: streaks, perfect dailies, league climbs and more. They show up in your trophy case and on your public profile, with your duck.

Questions about playing

No. You can play the daily trivia, any category and challenges as a guest. A free account saves your score, your streak and your medals, and puts you in a weekly league.

Is Quizpato free?

Yes. Every mode is free to play, with no lives or energy to run out of.

How long do I have to answer?

30 seconds per question. The clock runs on our side, so reloading the page doesn't reset it, and running out of time counts as a miss.

When does the daily trivia change?

At midnight your time. Everyone gets the same 10 questions in the same order, and you get one try per day.

Can I play in Spanish?

Yes. Every question and story is written in English and in Spanish, and you can switch languages from the footer at any time.

What if I think an answer is wrong?
