What is a Trivia game?
A Trivia game challenges the user to answer questions about interesting facts. These facts are typically grouped into topics. Example topics include pop culture, history, technology, current events, as well as corporate values and specific client products.
Anything that is worth asking about in an interesting way, can qualify as a trivia question.
Why do brands use Trivia games?
A Trivia game is a very simple game that allows users to answer a few interesting questions based on intelligent guesses.
Brands and businesses love the simplicity of the game. It allows them to engage their users emotionally, give out a prize, and also collect their details for lead nurturing.
This game is also perfect for launching on platforms such as e-commerce websites, product/brand-focused websites, media websites and corporate websites.
Our trivia games can also be embedded within native apps, messaging systems and corporate gamification platforms.
How do I generate leads with Trivia games?
As an option, we can implement a lead generation form to collect user information. A "sign up to play" form pops up at the beginning or end of the game experience, depending on what you need.
The data collected will be GDPR-compliant and only with the permission of the user. We will also prepare a GDPR compliant checkbox, privacy policy, and terms and conditions for the campaign.
All collected data will be available for access via our backend CMS. The data can also be exported into formats such as Excel. If you need to retrieve the data automatically, we can provide an API endpoint for your team.
What kind of rewards can I give away?
Rewards are purely optional. It depends on what you can afford to give away. For on-site activations, our clients typically give away physical gifts such as keychains and company merchandise. In such events, the Trivia game is typically played on a large screen/kiosk tablet. After that, the booth representative shall award the prize to the user.
For online deployments, some clients give out QR codes, coupons or gift codes to increase consumer loyalty. These codes are surfaced towards the end of the game, after the trivia game ends. The user can choose to screencap the codes on their phone, and keep it for future use. In other cases, we can automatically send an email or text message to the user, containing the codes.
Note, that rewards are an optional feature. Not all games have to tie in to rewards.
Inventory Management
Our cloud-based CMS gives you the ability to control the prize title, description, quantity of available prizes, odds, images and more.
For example, the campaign manager can configure the CMS to include
- one grand prize at extremely low odds (1% chance of winning)
- 20 medium value prizes at low odds (9% chance of winning)
- 1,000 low value prizes at high odds (90% chance of winning)
Having a good mix of prizes and odds will encourage users to come back and play again, thus improving customer and brand loyalty.
Can you implement a leaderboard for high scores?
Yes. We have a cloud based leaderboard solution, that we can implement into every game.
Rank users based on their high score achievement. Top scores can be sorted by all-time, weekly or daily. There's also the ability to reset the leaderboard at pre-determined times.
The data collected will be available via our backend CMS. Clients get access to view and export the data into Excel format as well.
Offline leaderboards are also available, subject to request. Contact us for more information.
Do you offer customization services for the Trivia game?
Yes. Depending on your goals, we can change aspects of the game such as
- Graphics and audio
- The questions and answers
- Number of questions
- Points we correctly answered question
- Rules or game logic

Do I get analytics of the games?
Yes. We provide analytics and a dashboard to easily keep track of your leads, players and rewards.
We provide a CMS backend which allows you to login, view the data and export into different formats such as Excel.
Can the game be integrated with 3rd party systems?
Yes. We have done integrations with many 3rd party systems as well as custom systems of our corporate clients. Examples include:
- Social media integrations (Facebook, Twitter, etc)

On which platforms can I deploy the game?
The Trivia game can be deployed within any website, intranet system, offline system, or packaged as a native Android APK or iOS build.
Our HTML5 technology allows the game to be easily ported for any target platform you need.
Can the game work offline?
Yes. For offline environments such as events or exhibitions without internet access, we can prepare a special offline version to be pre-installed as Android APK or iOS native app.
In this case, the leads collected shall be stored locally in the device. The game shall run as usual, without requiring any internet access.
To extract the data, it can be exported into Excel, or synced to a cloud server once the device is connected to the Internet.
Can you add coupon codes, QR codes, or barcodes into the game?
Yes. We can integrate special codes into the game to reward users. These can be coupon codes, vouchers, QR codes or barcodes of any standard format.
Rewards can be displayed in the following conditions:
- after the user wins.
- as part of certain milestones achieved.
- random coupon placements, as part of an Easter egg type hunt.
- at the start of the game experience, as an initial reward for encouragement.
- emailed to the user at the end of the game experience.
- texted (via SMS) to the user at the end of the game experience.
- any other custom condition.
Read our coupon and barcode gamification page to learn more.
Can you develop a Microsite or Landing Page for the Trivia Game?
Yes. Depending on your budget and goals, we can design a microsite to accompany the game campaign.
A microsite is typically a one-page website (sometimes called a landing page), which is decorated in a way which showcases the game in the best possible light. The microsite typically contains an iFrame that runs game, with important brand or product information around that iFrame.
The domain of the microsite can be a subdomain of your existing campaign/brand, or an entirely new domain.
Contact us for more information.
Do you provide game localization services?
For an additional fee, we're able to localize all aspects of the game, including translating the text, and changing graphics to fit the local culture.
We support any language worldwide. Some of the languages we have worked on include German, Spanish, Spanish LATAM, French, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Arabic, Farsi, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Norwegian, Burmese, Malay, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Thai, and more.
Please add a note in your contact form request, to indicate your target language.
