Frequently Asked Questions
Is IQ3K free to play?
Yes. IQ3K is free to play. We fund hosting, moderation, and live operations through short interstitial ad breaks shown periodically between rounds.
How does a live round work?
Questions run continuously all day. Each round presents one multiple-choice question with four options. Everyone currently in the match answers at the same time, then the next question appears.
How are streaks calculated?
A streak increases by one every time you answer correctly in sequence. If you miss a question or run out of time, your current streak resets, and you start building again from zero.
Can I play as a guest?
Absolutely. You can join as a guest immediately. If you want persistent identity features, create an account so your name and longer-term performance data can be linked to you.
Why should I register?
Registration helps keep your profile consistent across sessions and devices, and it supports account-level features like identity protection, streak history, and future progression rewards.
How often do questions refresh?
Rounds are fast-paced by design. In typical live flow, a new question is delivered roughly every 30 seconds, helping keep sessions engaging and social.
Is IQ3K mobile friendly?
Yes. IQ3K is built mobile-first. It also works on tablets and desktop browsers, and can be installed as a web app on supported devices.
Can children play IQ3K?
IQ3K aims to keep content suitable for a broad audience using moderation and content standards. Guardians should still supervise younger players and review our policy pages.
