The quiz mode is a variant of the offline mode. During the game1), randomly selected questions to be answered will be presented to you. Your answers are scored with points and are valued on a daily basis. If you are reaching a certain score and success rate, you will receive additional symbolic awards. You can track your success in the calendar of the quiz statistics. A quiz game differs from a normal offline game mainly in that it can not be repeated as a quiz. Although you can play the game several times, you can not answer the questions any more.
