QuizUp gives friendship groups the chance to participate in trivia face-offs inside a mobile app. At the same time, you can also challenge random opponents from across the globe. You can even earn badges to prove you’re a champion at certain topics. The relative anonymity of usernames is the only drawback to using this mobile app.
Kahoot is proving to be an exciting way to learn and have fun. This tool is predominantly being used by teachers in the classroom to build custom trivia quizzes for students to complete.
Name The States is a straightforward game that will put your geographical knowledge to the test. This game can take place over video chat, giving everyone the chance to get involved. All you have to do is get your group to write down the names of all 50 states - as fast as they can. This game is meant as a one-off, easy and quick as an icebreaker but (obviously) lacking in repeatability.
TriviaMaker enables you to create and host trivia games. If you’ve got a budding quizmaster or game show host in your friendship group, this might be the platform to use. As the trivia games can be fully customized, you could add questions related to personal events for a trip down memory lane. If you want to use this app, you’ll need time to prepare the trivia quizzes.

Let’s Roam’s Virtual Game Night combines trivia game technology with video chat. This is an all-in-one solution for friends and family. With plenty of trivia categories to choose from, you will be able to use this application on a regular basis. While this solution offers everything you could need, it doesn’t come cheap as the minimum cost is typically in the hundreds of dollars.
Quiz Witz gives you access to a full library of trivia quizzes produced by people from across the globe. Alongside being able to play these pre-made quizzes, the platform also enables you to create your own trivia quizzes. These can be shared with your friends and family.
Obviously, we’re a little biased here, but there’s a reason we built Water Cooler Trivia: we couldn’t find any flexible, low-price trivia options with super high-quality questions elsewhere.
Water Cooler Trivia has everything you need to spark lighthearted conversations via online trivia with friends and family.
