Streaming giant Netflix has announced the launch of an all-new interactive game for its subscribers called 'Triviaverse.' The new game lets Netflix users compete against a "Trivia master" using their remote controls.
Triviaverse centers around obtaining badges, which players acquire by beating high scores and responding to questions as rapidly as possible before time runs out. The gameplay itself is rather straightforward. By using the arrow keys on their remote, players must correctly answer as many questions as they can in a certain amount of time. The questions will cover a range of topics, including science, history, and popular culture. As users progress through the rounds, the questions get increasingly harder.
“Whether it’s challenging a personal best to beat 4,000 points or dueling your friends to reach 10,000 points, we hope you learn something new and have fun!” wrote Netflix Director of Product Management Rick Sanchez on Netflix's blog.
