WHAMI

About WHAMI

WHAMI is a daily trivia game on the web and on iPhone, made by Brendan Coen. Every morning at 6am US Eastern time a new numbered set of ten questions appears, and everyone gets the same ten.

Each question has ten seconds on the clock and four answer choices. The questions run from easy to brutal, harder ones are worth more, and answering quickly multiplies your points, so a game can score in the thousands. There is no pausing and no going back.

Questions 8, 9 and 10 form the media round. Two of them play a short song clip and ask who the artist is, then show the album art you were hearing; the other is a photograph. The result card shows your score, a row of right and wrong squares with symbols for the music and photo questions, and your streak.

No sign-up is needed on the web; the iPhone app adds streak reminders. It suits quiz fans who want a quick daily test with a music twist.

Tips

• Answer as soon as you are sure; the clock costs you points.
