Quiz is straightforward enough. Problem is that difficulty is apparently tied to questions that become so obscure or so specific that it becomes a frustrating guess. I may know capital cities of most countries but certainly not which of four obscure cities across the globe lies northernmost, when they lie extremely close to each other on the n-s axis. It's simply too specific. Same goes for all categories ; a quote from a book of some (not very famous) german writer from 1932? Really? No fun.

It's a basic-looking app, but it works in their favor. It's simple, with a question-after-question format, and has no animations or ads to clutter the process. One minor drawback is that I feel flooded with difficult history, geography, and science questions. It's good to be challenged, but I'm overwhelmed by the number in those categories. I feel it lacks questions in film, entertainment, music, and sports categories.

Great quiz. The items aren't "trivia". They're the kinds of things you would know if you really know geography, science, current events, history, art, etc The quiz, as promised, goes on and on. Some of the questions are repeated giving you a chance to actually learn them and when a quiz is over, you can review the right and wrong answers with reference links to learn more.
