Always on

A new game every 20 minutes

Games start on the clock, at the same time at every bar on the network, so you're always playing against the whole network, not just your bar. Three rounds of six questions, with a different live minigame in every break. Miss one? The next one's already counting down.

Minigames that actually get weird

Every minigame is live, network-wide. When the break hits, every bar on the network starts the same game at the same second, and you're competing against every player in every one of them, not just the people at your table. Whack dandelions as an angry gnome, play a hole of golf across the whole game, eat hot wings until your head catches fire, solve the word on the board before anyone else does. The TV shows the room going at it, every score lands on the board, and your stats carry forward. Nobody else does this. Other bar trivia has you play alone and get ranked afterward. Here, everyone, everywhere, at once.

Bragging rights

Climb the boards

Every game counts toward something. Weekly top scores, the monthly top 30, all-time scoring leaders, minigame money leaders, the top 45 games ever played — they all run on the TVs at every bar, with your name and your home bar next to the number. Top of the month wins a prize. Your profile keeps the rest: wins, streaks, accuracy, win rate.

Bar vs. bar

Bar Wars

Every point you score also counts for the bar you're sitting in. Bars across the network are ranked against each other all month long, and the board is on every TV. Your regular spot losing to a bar two towns over? That's on you.

Receipts

More stats than any trivia game, anywhere

Every answer you've ever given is on the books. Wins, win rate, accuracy, perfect streaks, games played, bars played at, how late you play. The TVs run "Inside the Trivia Game" boards that rank the whole network on each one, so your name can be up there for something other than points.

Real prizes

Top the month, win the gift card

Every month the highest trivia score on the network wins a prize, and the winner gets their name, score and bar put up on every TV. Gift cards, theme-night giveaways and special promotions run through the year. It's free to play, so there's no catch, just the question of whether you can out-score the regulars.

Special events

Theme nights and trivia contests

Every so often the whole network plays one subject for a night — hair metal, the 80s, the 90s, the Super Bowl — with a prize on the line and bars competing against each other. The posters go up on the TVs and on Facebook a couple of weeks out, so follow along if you want a shot at the gift card.
