Challenge your and your friends’ knowledge on this trivia website

Perhaps quizzes give you traumatic flashbacks of dictatorial teachers and all-night cram study sessions, but for those who enjoy testing their grey matter’s information-retention ability, there is a website guaranteed to offer hours of entertainment. The site is free, interactive and frustratingly addictive.

Sporcle.com offers an endless array of quizzes and trivia games to test your knowledge on almost every subject imaginable. From cinema, music and sports, to history, geography and food, there is not a single avenue to explore that won’t remind you just how little you actually know. The multiple quiz formats also ensure that the experience is not tedious or repetitive, but incredibly challenging and satisfyingly rewarding.

Apart from the set brain-twisters, players can create quizzes, challenge friends to quizzes, or surf the site looking for large groups to compete against. At the very least, if your test scores don’t embarrass you, you can post your high scores for the greater community to have a crack at. So, if you wish to guess the capitals of all the African countries, or list all the Harry Potter characters who look like vegetables, Sporcle.com will give you that and everything in between.
