A risk-reward trivia game where you and an AI opponent independently choose how hard to play.

Outsmarted Again reinvents the classic trivia format by adding a strategic layer: before each question, you choose your difficulty — Easy (1 pt), Normal (2 pts), or Hard (3 pts). The AI does the same. You're not just testing knowledge — you're gambling on how much you know.

How it works: Each of the 5 rounds reveals a category — History, Science, Pop Culture, Geography, Sports, or Technology. You pick your risk level, answer your question, and then see how the AI performed on its own independently chosen difficulty. The player with the most points after 5 rounds wins.

What makes it different:

  • Strategy meets trivia — Picking "Hard" for 3 points is tempting, but getting it wrong means zero. The AI faces the same dilemma, making every round a mind game.
  • 270 handcrafted questions across 6 categories and 3 difficulty tiers, with no repeats per session.
  • The AI is a real opponent — it picks its own difficulty (weighted toward Normal) and has accuracy that scales with the challenge it chose. It's beatable, but never a pushover.
  • 2-minute sessions — Quick enough for a scroll break, deep enough to come back for more.
  • Leaderboard + social sharing — Win streaks tracked, results shareable in comments.
