General Knowledge Quiz
General Knowledge is one of Sumbo’s trivia packs — a multiplayer quiz where you race your friends to tap the right answer to questions drawn from a bit of everything.

Each round shows one question — it could be about anything: history, science, words, food, sport, the world — with four possible answers. Tap the right one quickly: the faster you lock in, the more points you score.
Every question is multiple choice, so there’s no typing and no spelling — just recognise the answer and tap. You get ten seconds a question.
What is in the pack
A wide mix of mainstream trivia — the kind of questions that come up at a pub quiz. No single subject, so it rewards being a bit of an all-rounder rather than a specialist.
Answers stay broadly recognisable: you don’t need niche expertise, just the general knowledge most people pick up along the way.
A great leveller for any group
Because the questions span every topic, no one person dominates — the film buff, the sports fan and the bookworm all get their moment. It keeps a mixed group evenly matched.
One person creates a room, shares the code, and up to six people play from their own devices — no accounts, no downloads, just a link.
Pick a specific theme
Want a tighter focus than the full pack? Each of these is its own themed quiz, with questions drawn from that topic only.
