Ready to put your knowledge to the test? You have loads of fun and who knows, you might even learn a thing or two!

You can challenge your self against your own high scores or even better, go against the worlds best scores with the ONLINE LEADERBOARD built right into the game!

This game brings the largest selection of trivia questions to the iPhone/iPod vs. any other trivia game available... over 3000!

8 categories of questions are included covering General Knowledge, Entertainment (everything from movies to TV to music), Arts & Literature, Sports, Science & Nature, Geography, History & Politics, and Food & Drink.

Dont worry about getting stumped, like the classic pub trivia games as time go by incorrect answers are remove from the playfield. Although if you really want to be challenged you can turn this option off in the settings menu.

The more people that download this game the more fun it will be competing for top scores across the world so to kick-start it the game is temporarily priced at only 0.99 cents!

Good luck and have fun!

**** UPDATE ****
There is a rare bug that creeps where you cant back to the title screen after finishing a game if your phone hasnt been rebooted for a long time. There is already free update on the way to fix this that should be approved for the app store next week. If you are one of the people who has this happen sorry for the trouble (dont worry, your score is still saved to the leaderboard)!

Pros and cons of Trivia Master! app for iPhone and iPad

Trivia Master! app good for

...does what it says nicely, especially considering the price. And you can choose your categories, which is really nice.
Nice program easy interfaceand lots of good categories. Only downside is it seems to repeat questions too easily
Fun game but can it starts to narrow down your answer options before Im done reading the question. Can you make it an option to have the answers narrowed down
Challenging and fun. Perfect game for the subway or waiting in line. Love it!
My only complaint is that I cant get to the online leader board. Every time I try to access it the app crashed. Other than that, great app. Its been lotsa fun!
Amazing app. Questions are difficult. But that is the point. The only glitch I have is that I cant change any settings. The sliders wont move. Other than that its perfect!

Some bad moments

Occasionally freezes up when trying to return to the title screen after finishing a game. Questions are often so random that they cant even be considered "trivia" and are way harder than other trivia question you would find elsewhere. Needs more options, especially for turning off the timer.
The app needs work. Most of the questions are too hard. The questions repeat too frequently (not within a single round, thankfully). There is a British slant to most of the Sports questions. Plus there is a major bug: there are a lot of questions in the literature section that refer to a line or an excerpt that NEVER shows up on the screen.
Questions like "What was the name of the faun that befriended Lucy in "I Love Lucy"?" You mean "Chronicles of Narnia"? and ... "Groups of them are called?" (Groups of WHAT?) Many questions are impossibly obscure, and multiple choice answers are poorly chosen, as in "How many wrens live in Great Britain?" 5 million, 10 million, 15 million or 20 million? Not even a solid guess among them. Better assortment of answers would be 50k, 500k, 5m, 50m. All in all it gets one star for quality of questions and 4 stars for the program itself. But since the questions are what its all about... Would not recommend, there are others that are better.
Game randomly closed during trivia play; I dont understand how someone would release a game that doesnt work.
This game is pretty good. One problem is that when it asks you "what book is this line from" it never tells you the line. Also it would be nice to be able to play more than 10 questions at a time.
Ive only played for 20 minutes and have already come accross the same questions SEVERAL times!?! If you cant provide enough content, you SHOULDNT CHARGE!?!
