Quizircle: Trivia Quiz Circle the alphabet, answer a question for every letter, race the clock, and climb the leaderboards. Quizircle blends speed, knowledge, and strategy in a fresh take on trivia. Instead of a traditional quiz sheet, you progress around a letter ring: the active letter glows orange, correct answers turn green, mistakes flash red, and passed letters stay yellow until you return. Play solo for a new personal best or challenge friends to head-to-head duels. Multilingual question pools, voice or typed answers, and daily jokers make every round feel different. How it works Letters activate in alphabetical order. Read the question in the center, then answer with the in-game keyboard or your voice. Not sure? Pass and come back to yellow letters later in the round. Correct hits earn points and bonus time; build combos and chase the top of the board. New to Quizircle? A step-by-step interactive tutorial walks you through correct answers, wrong feedback, pass, voice input, and the hint joker. Replay it anytime from How to Play. Game modes • Classic — 5 minutes. Type or speak your answers and use jokers. • Fast — 3 minutes. Less time, more intensity. • Host — Play together in the same room. The phone holder sees the answer; everyone else guesses aloud. • Weekly Tournament — Mixed hard questions with no single category. A new challenge every week and its own global ranking. Categories General Knowledge, History, Technology, Science, and Sports are free. Premium unlocks Mythology & Legends, Food & Kitchen, Nature & Animals, and Gaming. Each mode and category has its own leaderboard with daily, weekly, and all-time views. Jokers and strategy You get one use per joker each day: • +15 seconds — Extend the clock when time runs low. • Shield — Your combo streak survives the next wrong answer. • Hint — Reveal some letters of the correct answer. Friends and duels Share your friend code, send requests, and build your list. Start a 1v1 duel in any category: you play first, then your opponent tries to beat your score. Track duel history and rankings on your profile. Profile, stats, and achievements Your profile shows total games played, correct and wrong answers, success rate, and average round duration.
