Trivia1 FAQ

Is Trivia1 free to play?

Yes. You can play live online trivia and host your own game for free. A free account lets you join Trivia Royale, our always-on global game. Paid Pro plans unlock larger games, custom question banks, and team play.

How do I host a trivia game online?

Click Host, pick your categories, and Trivia1 generates a 6-character join code. Share the code or QR poster on a TV, screen, or link and players join instantly from any device — no install required.

Can I play trivia online with friends?

Absolutely. Share a join code so friends can play from anywhere, or jump into Trivia Royale together. Pro players can form teams and answer from multiple devices, voting on each question before the captain locks it in.

What is Trivia Royale?

Trivia Royale is a single, always-on live trivia game open to everyone. A new question appears every few seconds and winners are crowned every round. Drop in any time — a free account is all you need to play.

How many players can join one game?

Trivia1 is built for massive multiplayer trivia — hundreds or thousands of players can compete in a single game at once, live, from their own devices.

Do I need to download an app?

No. Trivia1 runs entirely in your web browser on any phone, tablet, or computer. There's nothing to install for players or hosts.

Can I create my own trivia questions?

Yes. Pro plans let you build custom question banks and even generate questions with AI, then run them in your own live games.

How does scoring work?

Scores update after every question. Correct answers earn points, and faster correct answers earn more. You can change your answer until the timer hits zero, and the live leaderboard updates in real time.

Can I create a trivia game with AI or an API?

Yes. Put a topic, difficulty, and question count in a host link and Trivia1 generates the questions with AI. You can also automate it with an API token or the Trivia1 MCP server, so LLM agents can create and seed games directly. See the docs for details.
