About Zoo Trivia
Time to show off your animal knowledge! How many of them do you know? Can you spell the names correctly? Dozens of animals are waiting for you. Mammals, dogs, cats, fish, insects and much more! It's harder than you think! But don't worry, you can still use the elegant hint system to help you overcome difficulties.
How to play Zoo Trivia
The opening minute doubles as the tutorial. Keep a hand on the arrow keys / WASD; everything else is listed in the controls table. Portrait layout: hold the phone the way you normally do, or play it centred in the page on desktop. There is no penalty for failing, so push a little harder than feels safe.
Controls

Why it is worth playing
What makes Zoo Trivia stick is that failure is informative. You can usually name the mistake, and that is what makes another attempt tempting. That is the whole pitch, and it is enough.
