True or False

True or False is a rapid-fire trivia game: a statement appears, and you choose whether it is true or false. Correct answers add a point and explain the fact; wrong answers explain why the statement is a myth.

The statements are chosen to surprise — common misconceptions sit next to genuinely counter-intuitive facts, so guessing is a bad strategy. Many explanations include the detail that makes the answer stick.

Sixty seconds, one point per correct answer, and a streak counter. The pace is fast enough that hesitation costs more than a wrong guess.

How to play True or False

• Read the statement in the centre of the screen.
• Click TRUE or FALSE, or press the left and right arrow keys.
• Correct answers add a point; the explanation appears either way.
• Answer as many as possible in sixty seconds.

Tips & strategy

True-or-false questions are designed around myths. If a statement sounds like something everyone knows, check it twice.

• Be suspicious of absolutes: never, always, only and impossible are often markers of a false statement.
• Common sayings are frequently wrong (goldfish memory, lightning never strikes twice, bats are blind).
• Counter-intuitive facts are often true — the quiz deliberately includes them.
• Do not deliberate. The explanation appears after every answer, so you learn either way.
• If you have never heard a claim before, lean false; most invented statements are false.
• Keep a steady rhythm; the streak is more valuable than one careful answer.
