There have been apps that mimicked pub quizzes before. But never yet has there been an app that mimics the pub-quiz machine. You know the one – the one that sits there in the dark corner of the pub, all broody like. You and your pals wander over after a few jars and, suddenly, all hell breaks loose as you realise that, even though youve had a few, you really, really want to outdo each other – because these games are seriously competitive. Not to mention addictive.
Now, iPubquiz has put that same level of addiction and competitiveness into an app that you can download right here on iTunes. Its all here. All the fun and excitement of those pub-quiz machines. All the simplicity of an app. And all the usability youd expect from a top app. Best of all, you can play it anywhere, anytime without feeding the machine with coins. And you can play it sober. Nifty.
One of the main strengths of iPubquiz is simplicity. Once youve tapped play, youre off. Youre straight into a choice of four random categories, chosen from TV, Sport, Science, Royalty, Politics, Phrases, People, Nature, Mythology, Music, Medicine, Literature, History, Geography, Food & Drink, Film, Arts or Animals.
But, you know, one of the annoying aspects of these quiz games is that, if you play them enough, the same questions pop up time and again. Not so with iPubquiz. With thousands of different questions, youll be cussing and swearing less and playing much, much more.
So, how does it work? Well, youll be asked a series of questions for your chosen category and you win points for correct answers, as well as speed of response. Each round is five multiple choice questions. Get them right and you rack up points. The more you score, the higher you go up the Global on-line scoreboard.
After each round of questions, theres a bonus question that asks you to put four items in the right order. Get this right and youll collect ‘bonuses’ or ‘beer mats’ that give you 50:50s or passes if you don’t know an answer – you have three chances. The games only up if you make four wrong guesses. Then, guess what – you just start again.
Anyone with an ounce of competition in their bodies or who enjoys pub games will love this game. Challenge your mates, break up long journeys and get seriously addicted to iPubquiz – the king of pub-quiz apps.
