About the Game

Idol Factions is a team-based trivia game that requires speed and collaboration. In each round, both teams will be given a prompt with three unrelated categories, like “Is it a Beatles song, a Romantic Comedy or a TV Dating Show?” When the timer starts, words associated with those categories will start appearing for players to sort. Players will be positioned on the board near category names (where they can place correct answers), other spots on the board that they can move to to help sort, or portals that allow them to send words to the other team to sort.

The words come fast and you’ll need to communicate with other players to help move them in the right direction by passing the word to each other or putting it in the appropriate bucket. With each correctly sorted word, your team’s stone avatar will grow. Keep a close watch because occasionally, a bomb will appear. The countdown above the bomb shows you how much time you have to send the bomb into a portal to create a distraction for the opposing team.

At the end of the round, you’ll discover how well you sorted. Each round gets faster to test your skill!
