About The Trivial Dead

Grab some friends or risk it alone to fend off a horde of brain eating zombies by answering 1000’s of trivia questions! Earn killstreaks to help battle against the undead by answering multiple questions in a row. Choose your difficulty and how many waves you can survive against, or even try our survival Endless mode.

Test your trivia skills with multiple categories. There are 1000’s of brain-teasing, multiple choice questions in Sport, Entertainment, History, Science & Nature, Geography, Art & Leisure and People!

KILLSTREAKS

Earn critical killstreaks by answering multiple questions in a row. Whether it's unlocking Cheats, Extra Time, throwing a high-explosive grenade or one of the other killstreaks available, you’d be wise to aim for collecting up as many of these as you can before the zombies reach you!

MULTIPLE WAVES & ENDLESS MODE

Choose many waves you will face off against with different difficulty settings. Do you want a quick and easy round on Easy Mode and one wave to brush up on your trivia? Or face the ultimate trivia challenge by facing an endless barrage of undead with our Endless mode? The choice is yours!

LAST CHANCE

If the brain-thirsty zombies get to you, you will have the chance to fight them off one-by-one in a sudden death mode in hand-to-hand combat - trivia style!


Please note: All trivia questions are in English only

Not recommended Apr 15, 2021
Well it's not bad but it's so poorly optimised that it it super heats my cpu. I can't play it for fear of the damage it's going to cause. I've tried limiting frame rates etc, but nothing works. For such a simple game with such simple graphics, there really is no excuse.

A solid trivia game. Plenty of replayabilty. Game is poorly optimised however, so I recommend capping the game's max frame rate. Unless you want to burn a hole into your desk. The game is simple but does it's job well. 6/10

Really enjoyed this one, nice to see a different take on more traditional quiz games and interesting mechanics to keep it fresh.

Fun little take on a quiz game.

As someone who isn't really into trivia games, this was a fun little twist to it that made it feel a bit more like a game. Getting those killstreaks was hard but if you got a good one it feels rewarding. It would be great if we could select a category to run the quiz on instead of getting a bit of everything. It might be nice to also have a question difficulty option but feels like it would be quite subjective. It also needs a bit of optimizing as this doesn't need to run at 300+ FPS, limiting it to 30 or 60 would be fine. (I did this manually in the NVIDIA control panel)

Accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do. Trivial Pursuit-style questions with a zombie aesthetic. Get enough questions right per wave before the horde gets too close. Multiple difficulty levels, and you can choose the number of waves you attempt in a row. Lets you know what subject you're the best at, and which one you suck at, lol. Runs normally, controls are easy and simple, and I didn't notice any glitches or bugs. Recommended for casual gamers and/or trivia nuts.
