There are people among us that just know a little too much. They live for trips to the local sports bar to get their hands on those TV trivia games, the gathering of friends for a game of Trivial Pursuit, and those moments where someone asks, "Wait, who was that guy in that movie?" If you're friends with that person, consider making your Game Night event on Facebook private. If you are that friend and suddenly find yourself uninvited to question-based events, you can take solace on your iOS device.
Assuming your friends haven't all excommunicated you for your wealth of knowledge, you can still play against them or strangers with Qrank. This app calls itself "Your social quiz addiction," and it's not lying. Acting as the medium for competition between the holders of useless knowledge, Qrank will have you racking your brain for the right answer as you compete with people around the world.
Upon starting up the app, you'll be prompted to create an account and connect it with your social network profiles. Doing this enables you to compare scores with your friends and followers, which you'll want to do to prove just how superior you are to them. Even if you don't latch your social presence onto your scores, you'll be slapped onto the leaderboard of your city, state, and country, as well as pitted up against players from around the world. If that's too distant for you, try playing "live" against people in your immediate area.
Of course, just as important as who you're taking on is what you're being asked, and luckily, the questions in Qrank are as challenging as they are fun. The daily games feature questions pulled straight from the headlines of recent news stories, and are often user submitted -- though processed by editors.
For some excellent bits of knowledge, solid competition, and addictive gameplay, you won't have to pay a single dime. Qrank is available completely for free -- the perfect price to prove your intelligence while gaining a little along the way.
