The digital Timer at the top right corner shows how much time is left. Once it reaches zero your Quiz ends. Depending on your Quiz Mode you will have different times to start with.
Probably quite self-explanatory, this is the name of the Quiz that you have chosen to play.
There are 5 different Quiz Modes to choose from for any Quiz. The 1-, 2- and 3-Minute Modes, the Stacker Mode, and the Sudden Death Mode. The first 3 Modes only differ in their start times of 1, 2 and 3 Minutes. The Stacker Mode starts with 15 seconds and rewards you with 3 extra seconds for a correct answer. However, a wrong answer will take an extra 6 seconds off the timer. The final Mode, Sudden Death, also starts with 15 seconds and simply resets back 15 seconds for every correct answer, while a wrong answer will instantly end the Quiz.
For every correct answer, your Points will increase by 100. An incorrect answer will not get you any Points.
A Bonus is awarded for a streak of correct answers. The longer your streak is, the bigger your bonus will be. The smallest streak is 2 correct answers in a row (for which you will get a Bonus of 5). A streak of 3 correct answers will result in an additional Bonus of 10 (so now you have a total bonus of 5 + 10). If you get 4 correct answers in a row, your Bonus would be 5 + 10 + 15 = 30. Once your streak ends by giving an incorrect answer your accumulated total Bonus will remain, but your new streak will start again at 0.
The Multiplier starts at 1.00 and increases by 0.02 for every Question (regardless of whether your answer is correct or incorrect). It basically means that the faster you go through the Questions the higher your Multiplier will be, potentially making a big difference to your Final Quiz Score. However, the Multiplier will have little meaning if most of your answers are fast but incorrect. Try to find the right balance between being correct and fast.
You can click the Music button to turn the in-game Music on or off.
You can click the Power button to end a Quiz instantly at any given time. Please note that in this case your Final Score will not be saved.
This shows the general Quiz Question.
The left side shows the Quiz Answers out of which only one is correct. Once you click on any of them, you will see a green check mark (correct answer) or a red X-symbol (incorrect answer) and the next Quiz Question will load.
The main screen in the TV Player shows the Quiz Image. Alternatively, it can also be a written text.
Once your Quiz ends, you will also see your Final Quiz Score in this section of the TV Player.

You answered out of questions correctly for which you got Points (100 Points per correct answer).
For answering multiple questions in a row correctly, you got a Bonus of (your Bonus increases with every additional correct answer in a row).
Your Multiplier is for having attempted questions.
Therefore, your Final Score is:
( Points + Bonus) x Multiplier =
The 1-, 2- and 3-Minute Modes are pretty self-explanatory. Once you select any of those and start the Quiz you will have either 1, 2 or 3 minutes of play time to get as many answers correct as possible. The Quiz ends when the clock reaches zero.
The Stacker Mode lets you start with 15 seconds on the clock. A correct answer will add 4 seconds to your time, while an incorrect answer will take off 6 seconds. The Quiz ends when the clock reaches zero.
The Sudden Death Mode lets you start with 15 seconds on the clock. A correct answer will reset it back to 15 seconds, an incorrect one will end the Quiz immediately, regardless of how much time is left on the clock. The Quiz also ends when the clock reaches zero.
The Leaderboard calculates the weighted average of all your best High Scores. In this context “weighted” means that we value the High Scores for a 1-Minute Mode different from a 2-Minute Mode and a 3-Minute Mode. The reason is – simply put – that a player who plays the 2-Minute Mode of a Quiz will generally get double the points total at the end of that Quiz compared to if he would play the 1-Minute Mode. Double the time (2-Minute Mode) generally means double the points, at least roughly. In order to not favor players who only play the 3-Minute Mode (triple the point potential) we use weighted averages to calculate your Leaderboard ranking.
Here is an example of that weighted average: Let’s assume you play the Tennis Player Quiz in all 5 Modes. In the 1-Minute Mode your High Score is 1000 points, in the 2-Minute Mode you reach a High Score of 2500 points and in the 3-Minute Mode you get 6000 points. You also play the Stacker Mode and get 2000 points and then finally the Sudden Death Mode with 1000 points. The weighted average then goes as follows: 1000 + (2500 / 2) + (6000 / 3) + 2000 + 1000 = 7125. That final number (7125), your weighted average High Score for all 5 Modes in the Tennis Player Quiz, will then be added to your Leaderboard ranking.
A few thoughts: Players who play more Quizzes and Quiz Modes will be rewarded, since they simply increase their chance of getting more High Scores. However, players who are very smart and simply better than others will generally still have an edge over players who simply play a lot (but are not very good). Yet, even if you are the most brilliant Quiz player ever but only play a single Quiz you will probably be overtaken by others in the Leaderboard ranking over time, because – well – they will eventually get more points by playing other Quizzes too.
A very simple example would be player A playing 1 Quiz and getting a great High Score of 20000 points (congratulations!), while player B plays several Quizzes (let’s say 20) and gets an average High Score of 1500 (not too shabby) for each of those. Player B would then be ranked higher in the Leaderboard with 30000 points.
Challenge Ranking shows a list of Players based on their skill and strength in the Challenge Mode (Challenges are Quizzes played in groups of 2 to 5 Players). Challenge Points are awarded depending on how well you perform.
All Points are awarded at the end of a Challenge. A Challenge ends when a group is full and all Players have played, or when it expires, whichever occurs first.
When you create or join a Challenge but do not play, you will lose 1 point. We do this so that Players don’t randomly create or join Challenges and then don’t play them (which would somewhat ruin the Challenge for the rest of the Players).
When you create or join and play a Challenge, you are awarded 1 point.
You get additional points when you beat Players in a Challenge. For every Player that you beat, you get 1 additional point. Thus, the most points you can get is 5, which would occur in a group of 5 Players. By winning that group, you have beaten 4 other Players (+4 points) and you will also receive 1 point for joining and playing that Challenge.
