The show

Fränk hosts. Hilary provides the running commentary. Pick your player count and difficulty, then take on ten questions each.

Question types

Multiple choice — four answers, one is right.
True or false? — one statement, two buttons.
Take a guess — two numbers, one is right.

Scoring

Each correct answer earns 1,000 points, plus up to 500 for speed. The number on the timer shows what your answer is worth right now. That's up to 1,500 points per question.

Question ten is the Final Question, worth double points: up to 3,000. A chance to steal the lead.

What it takes to pass

Easy — 60 seconds per question. Get 5 out of 10 right.
Medium — 45 seconds. Get 7 out of 10 right.
Hard — 30 seconds. Get 9 out of 10 right.

The timer starts once the question and answers have been read out. You can answer sooner: tap to interrupt and claim the full speed bonus.

Playing together

Up to four players take turns on one device. The current player's name appears at the top. Fränk can't read your names out, by the way.

Where your progress lives

Your leaderboard, names and question history are stored in this browser — rather than on a server. They're kept on your device.

Clearing your browser data clears your progress too. A private window or a different device starts fresh too.

Use the home screen's Back up button to save your leaderboard, names, settings and question history in one file. Keep it in your cloud storage or email it to yourself. Import it using the same button on your new device to pick up where you left off. Purchases aren't included in backups.

On your TV everything stays on this device: your leaderboard, your names and your question history can't be written to a file and carried to another device. Your purchase isn't affected — that one lives with your Amazon account and comes back by itself after a reinstall.

So nothing stutters

So that the show plays smoothly, with no gaps in the sound, we recommend downloading the audio files once. It is entirely optional — the show runs without it, with voices and music arriving as you play. Use Please download on the home screen; it shows how much that currently comes to. Best over Wi-Fi, and you only do it once.

Without it the show still runs, it just has to fetch each line as it goes.

Downloaded audio

Downloaded audio lives in this browser's storage, alongside your leaderboard. You won't find it as ordinary files on your phone.

Delete downloaded audio before uninstalling the game. Open “Please download” and use the delete button below the download button.

Uninstalling first can leave downloaded audio in your browser's storage. The game and its delete button disappear, but the browser may keep those files.

Already uninstalled? Reinstall the game, delete the audio under “Please download”, then uninstall again. Your leaderboard stays intact.

You can also clear this game's site data in the browser you used to install or open it: look for tvmotorworld.sortylendo.com under site settings. This removes your leaderboard and progress as well, so back up first.

On your TV there's nothing to take care of. The audio lives in the app's own storage, and when you uninstall the game one day, all of it goes with it — no clearing up first. You can still free up space whenever you like: Delete downloaded data sits in the “Please download” sheet, right below the download button.

Getting repeat questions?

The game remembers which questions you've played and picks fresh ones first. To reset that history, use Shuffle questions on the home screen. Every question goes back into the pool. Using Restart during a show also reshuffles the questions.

Earn your streak rewards

Get your own answers right in a row to earn rewards: 3: a 50:50 lifeline. 5: a time refill. 7: a Final Shield. Each reward can be earned and used once per player, per show. A wrong answer or running out of time resets your streak, but any rewards you have already earned stay available. Another streak does not recharge a reward you have used.

50:50: once narration ends, use it on a question with four answers to remove two wrong options. The correct answer always stays. The timer keeps running. It is not available on two-answer questions, typed estimates or in Score Rush. The movie questions in Lights, Camera, Engines! remain eligible, including on Hard.

Time refill: tap Refill timer while a main-show timer is running to restore the full answer time for your difficulty: 60/45/30 seconds on Easy/Medium/Hard. The possible speed bonus is restored too; typed estimates still have no speed bonus. You cannot use it during narration, a pause or Score Rush. A full or expired timer does not use up your refill.

Final Shield: automatically prevents the 2,000-point penalty if you get the Final Question wrong or let its timer run out. The answer still counts as wrong. A correct Final Question earns its normal points. Your pass target does not change.

Show missions: Triple means three correct in a row; Know-It-All means five correct answers in total; Comeback means getting your next answer right after a mistake. These badges do not award points. The time refill needs five correct answers in a row, not five spread across the show.

Your Score Rush streak

Score Rush has a separate streak for each player. Get 5 correct in a row for +500 points, 7 for +700, and 10 for +1,000. These bonuses add up: a ten-answer streak earns 2,200 bonus points on top of the normal answer points.

Each bonus level pays out once per player, per Score Rush. A wrong answer or timeout breaks your streak, but you keep any bonuses you have already earned. Reaching the same level again does not pay out twice. Three correct answers get a celebration, but no extra points. In multiplayer, you can earn the bonuses your own question count allows.

Your best score streak and bonuses appear in the results. Main-show rewards are not available or earned in Score Rush. The usual penalties for wrong or unanswered questions still apply.
