You know things. Prove it in ten seconds.
Every question is a small duel: ten points for being right, up to ten more for being quick. Hesitate, and your rival closes the gap.
The oddly specific, gloriously useless kind especially. Trivington is where that finally pays out — provided you can retrieve it before the stranger racing you to the same answer does. Being right is table stakes. Being right first wins.
How a match works
Seven questions. One winner.
Follow one match from first tap to rematch — the Knowledge Pulse tracks every step.
-
Step 01
Pick your ground
A full category, a single subcategory, or Random — every choice has its own matchmaking pool.
-
Step 02
Meet your rival
Game Center finds an opponent, or a friend accepts your challenge — you're in a match within seconds.
-
Step 03
Both players ready
The match starts only when both sides lock in. No head starts, ever.
-
Step 04
Ten seconds a question
A correct answer earns 10 points, plus up to 10 for speed. Question seven doubles both parts of the score.
-
Step 05
The reveal
Picks stay hidden until the reveal. Live scores update as answers are accepted, then both totals settle at the reveal.
-
Step 06
The result
Best score after seven takes it. Level after seven? Sudden death continues until someone cracks.
-
Step 07
Run it back
One tap starts a rematch on the same connection — no lobby, no waiting.
The match experience
Built for the moment your heart rate rises.
Everything a duel needs — and nothing that slows it down.
No peeking
Answers stay hidden until both players commit. You see that your rival answered — never what they chose.
One source of truth
One peer hosts each online match, checks answer timing, and recomputes scores from the round history.
Sudden death
A tie after round seven isn't a tie. Extra questions decide it, one at a time.
Picture rounds
Some questions arrive as images — name the aircraft, the painting, the landmark. Hundreds of them hide in the bank.
No stalled matches
Timers, ready checks, and disconnect rules keep every contest moving toward a fair result.
Peer-to-peer by design
Live matches travel directly between the two devices through Apple GameKit — no gameplay server in the middle.

Progress that follows you
Progression and category mastery back up privately to your iCloud, so a new phone picks up right where the old one left off.
Matchmaking
A match whenever you're ready.
Quick match searches the exact category or subtopic you chose through Game Center. If no live opponent connects within about fifteen seconds, a built-in opponent starts in that same pool. Standard Play requires internet. For offline play, choose Practice on any topic or subtopic to face Robot Duck. Friend challenges wait for your friend and never use that fallback.

01What is Trivington?
A fast, competitive trivia game for iPhone and iPad. Two players, one category, seven questions — the sharper, quicker player wins.
02How long is a match?
A few minutes. Seven regulation questions with ten seconds each, quick reveals between rounds, and sudden death only if the score is level.
03How many questions are in each match?
Seven, plus sudden-death questions when a tiebreaker is needed — drawn from a deep bank of questions spanning 27 categories.
04How does scoring work?
A correct answer earns 10 points, plus up to 10 for speed. Both parts are doubled on regulation question seven. If the totals are tied, sudden-death round points, answer speed, and further tie-breakers decide the result.

Yes. Choose Practice on a topic or subtopic to face Robot Duck offline. You can pause and resume within the session, review your answers, and play again. Practice awards no XP, saves no match history, and sends no leaderboard or Social results. Standard Play, including its built-in opponents, requires internet.
07Can I challenge friends?
Yes — invite Apple Game Center friends directly, or add Trivington friends by exact handle or friend code and send a challenge in any category.

Trivington is preparing for its first App Store release. The download link will appear here when it is available.
