Trivia buffs now have a new way to prepare for games of HQ.

Called Practice HQ Trivia, the recently released Android app challenges players to answer multiple choice trivia questions similar to what you might see in HQ and other quiz games. There are no timers, goofy animations, or charismatic hosts, but you do get an unending supply of trivia questions without any gimmicks.

It's an incredibly barebones app -- consisting of just trivia questions and slightly intrusive ads that appear between questions when you get an answer wrong. (If you think money is a good incentive to answer questions correctly, just wait until you have to sit through a few app install ads.)

But it does have the advantage of being available whenever you need to satisfy your quiz show addiction. And who knows, it might eventually help you get better at the real deal (or, at least, your local pub quiz).
