Over 60,000 people open a trivia app twice a day for the chance to win hundreds of dollars in minutes - here's how you play
- Vine's creators are behind HQ Trivia, a unique trivia-style app that around 60,000 people play twice a day.
- HQ Trivia is run like a game show, with two live game sessions each day at 3pm ET and 6pm ET. Winners are allotted real cash prizes, and it's free to participate.
HQ Trivia is quickly becoming one of the most buzz-worthy gaming apps on the market: a trivia-styled, fast-paced mashup of 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' and 'Jeopardy' for the internet age.
HQ Trivia doesn't work like other gaming apps you might have played: it's free to play, but hands out real cash prizes if you win. Another big difference from its competition is that you can't play whenever you'd like: You can only play HQ Trivia twice a day, when the app streams a video with a live game show host who rattles off questions in real time against a swirling polka-dot background

This isn't Yusupov's first foray into video apps ― he was a key player in the development of Vine in 2012. One of Vine's co-founders, Colin Kroll, also joined Yusupov's venture into gaming, and Yusupov says the hype surrounding HQ Trivia is similar to the success Vine experienced early on.
You'll typically find about 60,000 players tuning into a single game on HQ Trivia, with varying cash prizes awarded.
