Amusement park Six Flags and the Q&A site Ask.com have partnered to create the Skip the Line app, a [mobile application that rewards users](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starbucks-for-life-merrython) for playing a trivia game.

The Skip the Line app, as PSFK points out, combines [location-based gaming](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scratch-earth) with exclusive access and rewards. If you have the app downloaded on your phone and you're within 2 miles of one of the 10 participating Six Flags amusement parks in the United States, then the mobile trivia game app will launch. All you have to do is answer the trivia questions correctly and you'll earn points as well as the chance to skip lines at Six Flag parks. According to the campaign website, those who answer the trivia questions correctly are automatically texted back with a unique code they can use to redeem prizes at the park's Guest Services area.
