Free Tech Quiz Game on Telegram — Test Your AI, Crypto & Dev Knowledge
Think you know your tech? There's a free quiz game inside Telegram that lets you test your knowledge across AI, cryptocurrency, web development, cybersecurity, and tech history — all without leaving the app.
No downloads. No sign-ups. It runs in the browser as well as inside Telegram, so you can start a round right here on this site.
If you would rather run your own quiz for a group instead of playing ours, be careful which bot you trust with it: of six Telegram quiz game bots tested in September 2026, none actually sends a quiz into the chat.
What Is the Tech Quiz?
It's a Telegram Mini App — a lightweight web game that runs inside your Telegram chat. You pick a category, answer 10 randomized questions with a 15-second timer, and try to rack up as many points as possible before running out of lives.
It's designed for quick sessions. A full game takes about 3 minutes, and you can play as many times as you want.
6 Categories
- AI & Machine Learning — GPT, transformers, RLHF, tokens, temperature, and more
- Web Development — HTML, CSS, React, TypeScript, Docker, GraphQL, CORS
- Cryptocurrency — Bitcoin, DeFi, smart contracts, Layer 2, staking, whales
- Tech History — iPhone, ARPANET, Python, Spotify, and computing pioneers
- Cybersecurity — VPNs, phishing, zero-days, XSS, honeypots, encryption
- Mixed — random questions from all categories
How Scoring Works
Each correct answer earns 10 base points plus a speed bonus (answer faster, earn more). Get 3+ correct in a row and you trigger a streak multiplier that can double your bonus per question. Wrong answers cost you a life — you start with 3 lives.
The best players consistently hit 80-100+ points by combining accuracy with speed and maintaining long streaks.
Global Leaderboard
Every score you submit goes to the global leaderboard. Type /top in the bot to see the current rankings. Your best score counts — play as many games as you want, and only your highest score shows on the board.
Challenge Friends
After each game, you can send a challenge directly to any Telegram contact. They'll see your score and can try to beat it. It's a simple way to start friendly competitions without any setup.
Why Play?
- Learn something — the questions cover real tech concepts, not trivia fluff
- Kill 3 minutes — perfect for commutes, waiting rooms, or procrastination breaks
- Compete — the leaderboard adds just enough competition to make it addictive
- It's free — no premium tier, no paywall, no mandatory ads
How to Play
- Open the quiz — in a browser, or inside Telegram
- Pick a category and hit Play
- Answer 10 questions before time runs out
- Challenge friends or play again
Works on any device with a browser, and inside Telegram on iOS, Android or desktop. One honest caveat: saving a score to the global leaderboard needs the Telegram bot backend, which is offline right now — the game itself, all 78 questions and your local best score, works either way.
A note on the companion bot
This quiz started life inside @charlie_dl_bot, which also does video downloads. That bot is currently offline, which is exactly why the links on this page now point at the standalone game instead: the quiz is a self-contained Mini App and never needed the bot to be running.
Running a whole game night, not just a quiz?
