I'm a big fan of the first IMDb app. Not that me and my trusty iPhone didn't pwn at the water cooler anyway, but the first IMDb iPhone app opened up a whole new territory of mastery. Well, along comes IMDb's trivia application and upon playing my first round of it, did I finally realize how little I knew about movies trivia all along. The pwnage tables are turned when the final score was added up and I scored at 38%. Obviously I need some practice!
IMDb Trivia App Features
You can choose from five categories of trivia, and each trivia subject has five levels: At the time of this article two more packs "TV Favorites" and "Blockbuster Films" were available for $0.99 each. I haven't bought the other packs, but I've played through the free set about a dozen times now and I haven't come across a repeat question yet.
The IMDb Trivia iPhone app has limited advertising: I always try to mention this when it comes to an app because over advertising really can kill iPhone app games in my opinion. This iPhone app game has limited advertising that isn't obtrusive at all. They don't try to force sell you the two additional packs and other than offering more questions, they don't force you to pay money to make the app work the way it "really should."

~ Who Said That?!: Match the phrase or quote up with the actor or movie it came from.
~ Mystery celebrity: Guess who the celebrity is in the blurred photo and get points for how quick you get it done.
My one only gripe about this app is that I often find some of the easy questions quite difficult and some of the more difficult categories quite easy. Maybe that's just my scattered and incomplete knowledge of the movie genre but still, I do about the same across many difficulty levels. For a free iPhone app game you can't ask for anything better though. It works great, looks good, teaches you something and puts enough effort into making the trivia fun to stick around with it. I have a feeling that the IMDb Trivia App will be a big trivia app hit for a long time to come.
