Vision
Revolutionizing the online skill games genre as known today by offering the best online, real-time, multi-player skill games
community for money.
Establishing a huge community of Trivia players who pit their Trivia skills against each
other for money.
• First in the market to combine a full range of cash-money, online, real- time, multi-player Trivia games.
• Trivia games are based on information and knowledge: the player must pick an answer from a multiple choice and True/ false options
• In the Googess games, Players compete against each other (NOT against the house) based on their knowledge & speed.
• Community based, ever growing, question data base; inviting players to post their original questions (Web 2.0 style).
• Hundreds of questions categories enabling narrow-cast players to compete in their specific knowledgeable fields only.
• Players will be able to create unique sub categories, create questions and to earn part of the rake
Googess Concept
Googess GamesThe Suite of games includes:
• Classic games (All the Way, Survivor)
• A patented “Trivionaire” concept (Quick games, Ring games, Tournaments)
Googess “Trivionaire” Game A multi player Trivia game played in a Poker style – players present each
other with questions from their own data base. Up to 5 players per Trivia table.
Quick games: players buy in for each question. The fastest to answer takes the pot. If no one answers correctly – the player who asked the question takes the pot.
Ring games: Each player pays the Buy-In in order to play certain number of rounds. The winner is the player with the highest amount of correct answers
Tournaments: Tournaments systems enables thousands of players to compete on huge pots in the Googess ring game format.
