What makes a great general knowledge quiz?

A good general knowledge quiz mixes topics so nobody dominates. Our daily round pulls five questions from a rotating set of 13 categories, so a geography whiz and a movie buff both get a chance to shine. Every question has a single, unambiguous answer — no trick wording, no scientific-name gotchas.

How long does it take?

About two minutes. The quiz is designed for a coffee break — quick enough to fit in your day, hard enough to feel like a proper win when you go 5/5.
