Orbit: Daily Trivia Quiz

New: after your Launch, search a Prompt's answers to see what any of them would have been worth. Play on iPhone, iPad and the web with one account.

Orbit is a free daily trivia quiz for iPhone, iPad and the web: seven questions a day with many right answers, and the rarer your answer, the further your rocket flies.

Name the rare one. Every Prompt has many right answers, like "Name a river". The answer everyone blurts out still counts, but a rarer one takes you further.

HOW IT WORKS • One Launch a day, new at midnight where you are: seven Prompts, 25 seconds each. • Up to 15 guesses per Prompt until one counts, with a warning when tries run low. Close misses get a "Did you mean…?". Stuck? Skip the Prompt. • Every right answer has a Tier, from Common to One of a Kind, and rarer Tiers load more Fuel. • Your Fuel carries you up a real course: Low Orbit, the Moon, Mars, the outer planets, past the stars, out to a black hole 13.2 billion light-years away. Every distance is real. • The course runs through eight Regions, from Near Earth to the Deep Universe, each with its own sky. Your rocket lifts off from a full-screen launch pad and crosses into each new Region as it climbs. • New to Orbit? Pip walks you through your first flight: three short pages, then a Test Fire, a practice Prompt on the real clock that counts toward nothing. Replay it any time from Settings.

BUILT FOR THE OPEN IPHONE DUO • Open your iPhone Duo and the whole course is on screen: every stop from Earth to the black hole, today's flight as a trail in Tier colors, and friends who have finished parked where they reached. Their answers stay hidden until you finish. • Logbook and Results spread into two panes. Fold mid-Launch and you keep your place; the clock keeps running, as it always does.

SEE WHAT EVERYONE ELSE SAID • After you finish, Results leads with your run: your Distance, your Tier row, then every Prompt with what you said. Search a Prompt's answers to see what another one would have been worth. Tap a Tier to jump to that Prompt. • See each answer as a share of everyone who played, and the answer most people picked. • Share your run as a grid of Tier colors, or a card sized for Stories.

KEEP YOUR STREAK • Fly every day to build a Streak. Heat Shields, earned along the way, save it on a day you miss. • The Logbook keeps every flight and a five-week calendar, with the Heat Shield days in your current Streak marked. • An optional Streak Alert reminds you 3 hours before the day ends, only if your Streak is at risk.

PLAY WITH FRIENDS • Sign in and race your friends on today's Friends Board: every friend's rocket on the track, how far each reached, their Distance and their Tiers. Their answers wait for the Head-to-head, once you've both finished. • Add friends from one sheet: send an invite link, enter a friend code, or find players by username. • Invite links open Orbit straight away on iPhone, and Orbit asks before adding anyone. • Head-to-head puts today's answers next to a friend's, Prompt by Prompt, once you've both finished, with your all-time record on their Profile. • Poke a friend who hasn't flown yet today. • Earn XP, Levels, Ranks and Badges. Challenges track your lifetime feats, from Streaks and One of a Kind answers to Overtakes, and unlock Badges and Banners. • Make your Profile yours to show off: a Display Name, Avatar, Title, Banner, rocket colors, pinned Badges, your best numbers and your Best Launch. • Design your Astronaut from skin tones, hair, faces, suits, headgear and Companions. Their face fills your rocket's window, they ride in the cabin beside Pip, and their face can be your Avatar. Some Parts unlock as your Rank rises; none are for sale. • Friend alerts tell you when a friend has flown (only if you turn them on).

PLAY ON THE WEB TOO • Play the same daily Launch in any browser at orbit.mathersoftware.com. Sign in with the same account and your Streak, Logbook, Profile, Astronaut and friends are all there. A Launch you finish in one place is done in both.
