Trivia Black is a celebration of Black culture, disguised as a game. Spin the wheel, answer questions on Black History, Music, TV and Movies, Sports, Geography and Black Girl Magic, and collect all six category pieces before your opponent does. Easy to learn, hard to put down, and you might learn something along the way. HEAD-TO-HEAD, ONE TURN AT A TIME • Challenge a friend by username, rematch a recent opponent, or take on a random challenger. • Play your turn when it suits you. You have 48 hours to make your move, and a notification lets you know when it's your turn. • Every right answer fills your Black Fist meter. Fill it, or land on the special Black Fist space, and you play for a category piece. • First to all six wins. If nobody gets there by round 25, the player with more pieces takes it. SINGLE PLAYER • Answer back-to-back questions against a 15-second clock. • One miss ends the run, with one chance to keep going. Make it count. • Earn coins for every right answer and chase your all-time best score. • Pick a topic or go random. NEW DECKS, NO UPDATE NEEDED • New topic decks show up in single player as soon as we publish them. • Premium topic decks unlock with a Deck Pass: 300 coins opens every premium deck for 30 days. POWER-UPS • 50/50 removes two wrong answers. • Double Chance gives you a second try. • Right Answer picks the correct answer for you. LEVEL UP • Win category pieces to earn fists, level up and collect coin rewards. • Climb the World Ranking. • Watch a short ad for free coins or a daily reward. PLAYED BEFORE? Welcome back. Log in with the email and password you used before, and your coins, level, power-ups and ad-free purchase are right where you left them. Forgot your password? Reset it from the login screen. GOOD TO KNOW • Free to play, with ads. A one-time Ad-Free purchase removes banner and between-question ads; optional reward videos stay available. Restore Purchases in Settings brings Ad-Free back. • Optional in-app purchases: coin packs and Ad-Free. Coins buy power-ups, extra turns and the Deck Pass. • Starting a game uses a turn. Turns refill over time, one every 30 minutes up to 10. • You need an account (email and password) and an internet connection to play. You can delete your account at any time in Settings.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Black One App at none against Trivia Black's 10. Black One App also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Trivia Black sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Black One App asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Black One App holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 37 and 14 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Trivia Black's written reviews are positive against 50% of Black One App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Trivia Black ships an update monthly, Black One App every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
