About Trivia Pirate

Trivia Pirate is a trivia website for people who miss the feeling of being surprised by how much they don't know. We write and curate quizzes that are short, tight, and occasionally cruel. You'll learn a fun fact even when you're wrong — especially when you're wrong.

Every quiz is ten questions, one at a time, no running score until the end. You pick, you commit, you find out. Along the way we track your streak, stash your doubloons, and let you climb from Stowaway all the way to Legend. No account, no password, no newsletter popup blocking the door. Just the quiz.

What we're about

• Fact-checked trivia. Every answer and fun fact is verified before it goes live. If you catch a mistake, tell us — we'll fix it and give you a shoutout.
• No dark patterns.No forced signups, no paywalls, no "share to unlock." We make money with display ads. If you hate them, an ad-free tier is on the roadmap.
• Good-faith difficulty. When we say a quiz is hard, it's actually hard. We don't pad our "only 3% can pass" claims.
• Local-first progress. Your score data lives in your browser. We can't see it, we don't sell it, and it disappears if you clear your cookies.

How we make quizzes

We pick a topic, rough out ten questions across a difficulty spread, write distractors that are plausible rather than stupid, and then every question gets cross-checked against multiple sources. Harder quizzes are calibrated so the success rate you see ("only 18% get this right") reflects real human performance from playtests, not marketing fluff.
