There are three sources of points in Question Cube:

  1. Result

  2. Time

  3. Combos


Result:

  • You can only earn points if you answer the question correctly.

  • Answering incorrectly earns a strike and breaks your combo.


Time:

  • Points gained for answering a question correctly is determined by your timing.

  • You earn the # of seconds remaining x10 points.

    • e.g. +170 points for answering a question correctly with 17 seconds left.


Combos:

  • Your combo is determined by the number of questions answered correctly in a row.

  • Your combo also determines the multiplier.

    • You gain a 2x multiplier for a 2 round combo.

    • You gain a 3x multiplier for a 3 round combo.



Strategy


  • Choose your specialty topics to stack the questions in your favor.

  • Make use of combos to score high.
