## What is topiQ?

From the Executive Producer of Family Feud...

Comes topiQ — the word puzzle game that keeps your mind razor sharp.

Every day, 10 new topiQ puzzles drop. Five answers. One topic. How fast can you get them all?

topiQ isn't your typical word game. With topiQ, you're connecting ideas — figuring out what five things share an original theme. Part trivia, part wordplay, completely addictive. The kind of game that makes you want to share your score with someone at midnight.
  
FRESH. EVERY. DAY.
300 topiQs are added every month — topics that range from the laugh-out-loud funny to the brilliantly unexpected. You'll always have fresh and topical material, and you'll never run out of things to discover and learn. 

CHALLENGE YOUR PEOPLE
Challenge a friend to a topiQ and see who solves it faster. Play for coins, track your wins, your streaks, and stats. Bragging rights included.

EARN COINS & UNLOCK MORE
Those topiQs can earn you coins! Spend them on bonus puzzles. Stack trophies and medals. 

WEEKLY CHAMPIONS
Each week, the top players in three categories — most coins won, most challenges won, and fastest topiQ solved — are crowned champions and earn exclusive trophies and FREE Premium membership!

 - 5 brand new topiQs every day — 150+ per month
