Trivia game to play with friends
By the Uniko team · Updated 2026-09-29
How it works
Each question names a category, like “Name a UK prime minister”. Almost any valid answer is safe, but one of them is the day's secret trap. You have 20 seconds per question, and the day's game takes about three minutes.
Three ways to play with friends
1. Share your score
Everyone gets the same game, so the simplest way to play together is to compare. When you finish, tap Share result to send a spoiler-free grid to your group chat.

2. Private friends rooms
Create a room and send the invite link. Everyone in the room plays the same daily game whenever it suits them, and there's one extra rule: you can't repeat an answer a friend has already given today. Play early and you have the whole field; play late and you have to be original. The room shows who has played and how far each person got, plus the last two weeks of results.
3. The public ranking
Create a free account and your streak and points appear on the ranking next to everyone else's.
