How the Olympics Quiz works

You finish with a gold-medal score, a percentage and your longest correct streak, and your best run is saved in the browser. Every retake reshuffles the twelve questions — no doping, no shortcuts.
What the quiz covers
- The symbols: the rings, the motto, the flame and where it is born.
- The history: 1896, the cancelled wartime Games and the first women of 1900.
- The odd facts: why the marathon is 42.195 km and what a gold medal is really made of.
- The modern era: Los Angeles 2028 and the newest sports on the programme.
FAQ
What does the Olympics quiz cover?
The history and symbols of the Olympic Games: the 1896 revival in Athens, the five rings, the torch relay, the marathon distance, and the facts every fan thinks they know — some of them wrong.
How is this different from your single-sport quizzes?
The Baseball, Basketball, Soccer and other quizzes go deep on one sport. This one is about the Games themselves — the ceremony, the symbols and the history that spans every sport on the programme.
How hard is the Olympic trivia?
The rings and the motto are warm-ups; the marathon origin, the cancelled Games and the first women's events are where the podium gets decided. Most players finish 7 to 10 of 12.
Does the quiz follow the next Games?
No — every question is a settled fact of Olympic history, so nothing expires when a Games ends. Retakes reshuffle the same twelve questions, and your best score is stored only in your browser.
