Play with your friends using gamepads and mobile devices
Askutron Quiz can be played locally with 8 players on one (preferably big) screen. It supports not only most gamepads with Xbox-compatible layouts, but also the original "Buzz!" Playstation 2/3 controllers (Windows/Mac). Don't have 8 gamepads lying around? No problem, just scan the lobby QR code with your phone and play using the Askutron Buzzer app!
Your friends are not in the same room right now? Don't worry, just invite them via Steam or use the online* match making to find other players! (*: Online mode is still experimental)
Asynchronous Online Multiplayer (Quizatars)
Play against your friends even when they are not online! The game remembers every given answer and allows you to play against your friends' "Quizatars" who will answer exactly like they would.
Or Play Alone: You Against the Community
If you'd rather play alone we got you, too! Play against the latest "Communi-tron", an advanced AI that uses sophisticated machine learning algorithms and is trained on input vectors of all Askutron players (Or in layman's terms: The bot picks the answers that on average have been picked most often by players). Find out if you are above the average!
Various Quiz Modes
Currently the game has five selectable quiz modes that can be mixed freely and will be extended in the future.
- Point Hunt - Speed is not important, just select the right answer within 25 seconds to get the points
- Blitz Quiz - The faster you answer, the more points you get
- Cut the Cake - Players are divided into two team and the first answers decides for the team while answers are only gradually revealed
- Viewpoints - Players first answer a opinion question and then have to guess the most popular answer
- Finale - In the finale players get a podium position based on their total score, then every wrong answer can cost you a rank!

This game no longer works, QR Code & web-link used to join games on your phone is no longer functioning
As many reviews have already stated, this game is not fully working and is longer being supported, so YMMV.
Personally, I wanted it to create custom quizzes and also play using original Buzz! controllers.
However, and quite unexpectedly, the problems I had were not specifically related with my particular use case.
I was able to create custom quizzes and use the Buzz! controllers without much of an issue.
What didn't work was actually loading the quizzes (some of the game types would not load because of insufficient questions or unknown errors) and , undoubtedly the most unexpected, loading the answers to the questions (I would start a quiz, the question, host and participants would show up but not the answers, meaning the game would not go on).
At first I tried with my custom quiz, but also tried with the standard quizzes and got the exact same results.
Also, I tried it on multiple devices (a gaming PC with W10 @ 1440p) and a Steam Deck (on both SteamOS and W10 @ 800p) and noticed the game would take significantly longer on my gaming rig (loading the game and each quiz). On SteamOS, in gaming mode, the controllers were not registered so I primarily tested on W10 (on both my PC and SD).
Great family fun
Great game!
I think this is a great game. And I've tried a lot of online trivia/quiz games. I think it's weakness is the questions. You need better questions and some are not that good. I would love to contribute questions. I think I could really help.
DONT EVEN BOTHER WITH THIS GAME:The devs have abonded it. spend your money elsewhere.
This game has potential but is currently let down by some serious flaws. Some good aspects - it's playable, friends can join in easily and it has fully voiced questions. The big drawback currently is that, as the developers acknowledge, neither of them are artists. The gameshow set visual isn't great and contributes little as a concept. The interruptions from the "host" between rounds are annoying, the avatars are few and uninteresting, and the user experience is affected by trying to force the gameshow format. Joining the game and answering the questions is easy, as it should be. Setting up the format of a session, whether rounds are timed and how points are decided, is more clumsy. The host doesn't need to voice everything - if a session consists of three rounds of "point hunt", do we need the host to announce "we are playing point hunt" before every round?
VERY early access. Has a lot of promise though. Needs to streamline the joining process as it took a bit of faff and the environment where this game is going to be played messing around with firewalls and QR codes etc takes away the vibe of a party somewhat.
Repeat questions - some are very difficult questions, some are extremely easy. Hope there's some sort of balancing and "grading" of question difficulty based on right answers. Played it over new years and the winners were the ones who got lucky with their guesses instead of "knowing" something - everyone got the easy questions right.
Played a second round and already had multiple repeat questions. I did not expect this to happen considering the games were only 5 minutes each.
Given the early state of this game, this is really entertaining. I played this with a few friends on one installation using the accompanying Android quiz app. Using the online lobby to find players takes a bit getting used to - just invite using your Steam app if you want to play with Steam friends. Otherwise, you're randomly joining with other players.
There are many quizzes and several modes to try. You can download additional quizzes from the workshop and mix them in, voting questions you (dis)like to rank them for other players. I've once had a few issues with the multiplayer mode but one of the developers reached out and resolved the issue.
I'd recommend this to anyone that likes quizzing with friends since you can try it offline with friends on one machine as well as through the online lobby. I expect things to break here and there when new features are pushed, but developers are responsive and friendly to resolve this.
Pros
Cons
Gotta be honest, it´s a pretty nice Quiz-Game !
Different Game-Modes...A lot of diversified questions...
