BackFire Trivia

Backfire is competitive multiplayer trivia built for modern trivia night. Pick your categories, split into teams, and outscore your rivals on a shared board—fast matches, full-board showdowns, and high-pressure team clashes.

GAME MODES

• Classic: Six topics and wagers on the full board. The standard Backfire match with complete setup and maximum strategy.

• Quick Play: Pick 3, 4, or 5 topics for a faster match with the same team energy and wager options.

• Random: The app draws each question for you. No wagers, pure speed and surprise.

• Rumble: 2, 3, 4, or 6 teams. Each question assigns two teams who answer in turn. Multi-team chaos with timed windows.

HOW A MATCH WORKS

1. Choose your mode and set up teams.

2. Select categories that fit your group (gaming, science, geography, pop culture, general knowledge, and more).

3. Play on a shared topic board: answer questions, bank points, and control the pace of the match.

4. Use wagers, lifelines, and bonus rounds when the score tightens.

5. Finish with a clear recap so everyone knows who owned the night.

WAGERS — RISK & REWARD

Before a question is revealed, the current team can wager. Multipliers include 0.5×, 1.5×, and 2×. Correct answers multiply your points; incorrect answers deduct. Play safe to protect a lead—or go all-in when you need a comeback.

CATEGORIES FOR EVERY CROWD

From big gaming franchises to geography, science, countries and capitals, famous firsts, general knowledge, and quirky “guess the year” style rounds—Backfire is built for mixed groups. Pick what your table knows, or force rivals out of their comfort zone.
