While there are a number of trivia games currently available to consumers, 'Elementary Minute' challenges you to answer as many questions as you can in a very limited time frame. The game uses a simple interface and clever questions to create a fun trivia gaming experience.
The game works by confronting users with questions from categories such as mathematics, geography or famous people. Users then have a limited amount of time to see how many questions they can answer. There are two modes of play available, one of which gives users a single minute to answer whatever questions they can. The other mode of play provides users four lives and then takes one life away for every question that they answer incorrectly. Unlike other trivia games, Elementary Minute is easy to pick up and resume at any time.
The app is currently available for Apple devices, including the new Apple Watch.
