Games Like Sporcle — Quick Quizzes Without the Archive
Sporcle's strength is its enormous archive; its weakness is that finding a good quiz takes longer than playing one. If you just want a scored round right now, these start immediately, and if you want depth, Sporcle is still the right place to go.
About Sporcle: A very large archive of user-made trivia quizzes, mostly type-the-answer lists against a timer. sporcle.com ↗
Closest thing here: Guess the Capital
A capital cities quiz that avoids the trick of offering three obviously wrong options — decoys are drawn from the same continent wherever possible, so the round is genuinely decided by knowledge.
Guess the Capital
Name the capital city. Ten countries, four options each.
