Seldom
What is Seldom?
Seldom is a free daily trivia game that rewards uncommon answers over obvious ones. Each day presents a simple prompt, and the goal is to find a response that few other players would think of. Lower scores are better, and scoring zero is the ultimate achievement.
How to play Seldom
Each day at midnight UTC, a new prompt appears, such as naming a word that rhymes with a given word. You submit an answer, and your score is based on how rare your response is among all players. The fewer people who chose the same answer, the lower your score.
Tips & strategy
- Skip the first word that comes to mind—it's likely the most common answer.
- Think of niche vocabulary, slang, or regional terms that fit the prompt.
- Consider wordplay, puns, or unusual interpretations of the prompt.
- Check the archive to see past prompts and learn what kinds of answers tend to score low.
- Don't overthink; sometimes a truly obscure but valid answer is better than a clever but common one.
