In recent decades, the study of the Eastern Roman Empire, also known as Byzantium, has been revolutionized by new approaches and more sophisticated models for how its society and state operated.

There is also a strong social aspect to the game. QuizUp gives points for speed and accuracy. This means that a game is not likely to last much longer than a minute, but that works in its favor as you’re more likely to keep coming back for more games. You have ten seconds to choose one of four possible answers for each question. Players face off in seven rounds- six plus one bonus round worth double points. Plus, someone who bought their way to the top is not likely to stay there long if they don’t have the skill. At first glance this might seem like it hurts the integrity of the ranking, but it’s a happy trade-off considering that there’s no bombardment of advertisements or requests to invite your friends.

QuizUp’s purchasable content is buying more experience points, which contributes to a higher rank. The game doesn’t require players to wait, invite friends, or buy in-game content to play for long periods of time: you can play as long as you like without interruption.
