How to play Uncommon Trivia
- Read the category
Each question names a category, such as a chemical element or a country in Africa.
- Type one answer
You have 25 seconds and one guess. There is no multiple choice.
- Score for rarity
The most looked up answer scores 10, the least looked up scores 100.
- See the rare ones
After each question, see your answer's page views and the three rarest answers you could have given.
A quick example
For a country in Europe, the United Kingdom scores about 10 points and San Marino about 100. Both are correct. The gap comes only from how often people look each one up.
Speed versus rarity
Twenty five seconds is enough for a rare answer only if you start thinking straight away. Skip the obvious picks in your head, go to the edges of the category, and type the first safe rare answer you find. Hesitating between two rare options is how the timer beats you.
Uncommon Trivia tips
- Think past the first answer that comes to mind. Everyone else thought of it too.
- Small countries, minor elements and lesser known books score well.
- A rare answer must still be correct. A wrong one scores nothing.
- After each question, read the three rarest answers the game shows you. They come in handy when a category returns.
