Know or Go is a regular segment on Ellen Degenere’s talk show where members of the audience stand on a trapdoor, get questions fired at them and then fall through the floor when they get one wrong for no discernable reason whatsoever, other than comedy. It’s Russian Roulette<\/strong> without the Russian Roulette element.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This is the app of it. You choose an avatar to be (female only as far as I can tell), dress it up and if you want use a photo to be the “face”. Then you stand on a platform (the default is the studio but others are unlockable) and get multiple choice questions thrown at you on a variety of subjects – you earn points for speed of response. Every third question you get right earns you a lifesaver, a lifeline that will knock out two of the incorrect answers. One wrong answer and its game over. You get a choice of difficulty, the questions appear to get harder as you go on. The trivia is pretty standard stuff. There is a two player mode where you buzz in and answer but seeing as it looks like the only way to lose is to answer incorrectly this strikes me as being a bit pointless.<\/p>\n

Ellen voices over everything but doesn’t seem to have enough different things to say and the graphical style is quite interesting, cartoony but with occasional\u00a0lifelike elements. I think that’s about as exciting as it gets, really.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
