Trivia Crack updated with new features and support for Windows desktop

last updated

The popular knowledge game Trivia Crack just received an update today on Windows Phone to version 1.1.0.5. That may not sound like a big update but according to reports coming in there are a lot of new features.

Also, maybe we missed it but Trivia Crack is also now playable on Windows desktop as a proper Store app. It's not quite a true Windows 10 app as this runs on Windows Phone 8.1 too, but it certainly shares the same code base. Now you can enjoy challenging your friends on your Surface, laptop, and phone.

One report from a user claims that the new version for phone supports "messaging, achievements, ranking, etc." and in fact, we see this under the left hamburger menu for both phone and PC.

Trivia Crack came to Windows Phone nearly just over a year ago. While the game was functional, it did lack many of those features mentioned above. Those features were available on iOS and Android, so it is nice to see them finally trickle over. Not only that but being able to play on our 32-inch 4K monitor is pretty swell too.

Grab the update for phone or PC and let us know what you think.

Thanks, Theodore L. and Suhasa S., for the tips!

  • Crashes all the time now on my Lumia 925 running W10M
  • Same here, L735.
  • May be the next build fixes it. Could be using some new api. I know I had games keep crashing on a specific build but then a new build fixed it.
  • Same thing happens to me as well!
  • Sad this game ran it's course. I'm on quiz up now
  • Awesome to hear!
  • I had Quiz Up installed for about three months, then deleted it. About two weeks later, they finally fixed the bug that prevented us from actually playing.
  • I've had it on my PC since it launched as a universal 8.1 app
  • Not new on PC btw, but nice update, works better now.
  • Yay! Now I can finally play... Nobody.
  • Haha, nice
  • Won't run for me. Starts then closes.
  • That was so nice of them to update it when no one plays it anymore...
  • Good update but for some reason I can't pin it to my start screen.
  • Nice, again an app that knows it needs to be on all major platforms to become/stay popular. You need to be able to play it with everyone you know, not just a few. Great job Etermax
  • I like forza horizon 2, but the only problem is that you can't play 2 players except when you connect online.They should make it upto 4 players please Microsoft.
  • Wrong article?
  • Where is Trivia Kingdom on our platform
  • Maybe the updates are coinciding with a followed up release of trivia kingdoms.  Let's hope it comes.
  • Buggy af...
  • Forgot this game existed, haha. Was a mildly entertaining few weeks.
  • Been waiting for this update! Made some good friends on there...
  • After updating the app to my Windows 10 Phone, it changed the language into Spanish. I have no idea how to change it back into English. Same thing with the Store app on my laptop :\
  • Same here... First installation and it is Spanish
  • Still no way to submit our own questions? I guess that is to be done from the app itself which is still not available on WP.
  • That's the one feature I noticed missing.
  • Android and IOS got a fairly recent update adding an l entirely new feature that allows the player to earn "power ups" much faster. So disappointed that this wasn't included in the update. Windows players are literally playing at a disadvantage Posted via the Windows Central App for Android
  • Wow, very nice. Hadn't opened this app in a while--was fun to go through all of the "unlocked achievements" that had been collecting all this time. Plus, there are a bunch of unread messages...so people were sending messages through this thing on iOS and Android?
