Fixed Famous People, which apparently didn't work. Sorry for that! ):
Elementary Minute is a minimalist trivia game designed for quick bursts of play. The concept is simple: you are shown a statement, and you have to decide if it is true or false by swiping. You have one minute to answer as many as possible. The game features multiple categories, including Mathematics, Geography, Famous People, and Science. With its clean design and 'just one more go' gameplay, it's a great way to brush up on general knowledge while testing your reaction speed.

Elementary Minute is the definition of a 'snackable' game. It takes the stress out of typical trivia apps by limiting the choices to a simple binary—True or False. The UI is incredibly clean, following modern design principles that make it a joy to look at.
What I love is the versatility. It’s perfect for a 30-second wait for the elevator, but it’s also educational enough that I don't feel like I'm wasting my time. The inclusion of an Apple Watch app is a brilliant touch, making it one of the few games that actually feels right on a wearable. It’s not a deep, narrative experience, but as a quick mental workout, it’s top-tier. It’s smart, fast, and very well-polished.

Tips & Walkthrough
The key is to not overthink. Most statements are 'elementary' level, but the pressure of the clock can lead to silly mistakes. Focus on a steady rhythm of swiping. If you get four in a row correct, you earn a small time bonus.
Gameplays
Choose between 'Classic Mode,' where you have one minute to score as high as possible, and 'Rush Mode,' where you have four lives and lose one for every wrong answer. You can also customize your experience by toggling specific categories on or off.

Sun May 17 2015 awsome, amazing, greatThought it was the best game until I got to the classic mode and there were many errors and typos. If fixed the game would be great.
Make questions relevant to today
Sat Aug 31 2019 Climax510Questions are dated and not very common things your no dealing in todays society. Make the questions relevant to 2000 - 2019. Good ideal but just not fun to play. No wonder nobody’s purchased it.
