Hello Trivia Fans and happy new year!
Our fifth regular update just dropped which adds several hundred questions, taking the Trivia Tricks total to over 4,500! We have also improved our internal process for vetting new question additions, so you should notice a quality improvement going forward!
We have been closely observing player feedback on Trivia Snowdown's temporary 'Vs Boss' mode and we'll be making our design takeaways from this experiment public next week. One bit of feedback we've already taken into account with todays update - the difficulty of both Santa and Krampus has been reduced! So if you felt they were a little bit too hard before then now's the time to give it another shot! Remember, you have until the 7th January to collect all the festive cosmetics and that includes the Santa's Suit and Krampus' Horns!
Sneak Peak, Question Bot's Around the Corner!
We believe the best way of ensuring a diverse question database is by collecting input from as many members of our community as possible. You may recall us mentioning that we had been investigating methods to ensure our question database can be driven by our users. After experimenting, we've concluded the best means of achieving this would be a Question Bot in our Discord.
Question Bot will be your one hub for question suggestion, and will even let you know if they've been approved for inclusion in Trivia Tricks! As an extra bonus, your name will be shown in-game alongside your question!
Question Bot needs a little more time in the oven, but we're hoping he'll be available to you all in the next couple of weeks. You may have already noticed the in-game pointers we added in preparation for the big launch!
To be clear, this doesn't impact our Early Access Milestone of Workshop support. We're committed to having Trivia Tricks' content be community-led and Workshop support is a core component of that goal.
Here's the full patch notes for this update, version 8.7.0!
Question Count Boost!
- The following categories have been heavily expanded, in some cases they're now over 20% larger! - Food & Drink - Film & TV - Music
- The following categories also feature additional questions - Animals - Art & Literature - History - Language - Science - Sports - Video Games
- Fixed many question typos (Thank you to all of you for reporting these!)
Trivia Snowdown Adjustments!
- We have increased the base chance of Santa and Krampus getting a question wrong
