Game shows have become quite popular in Pakistan since the early 2015s, and Trivizia plans on re-modeling these events with its mobile-based platform.
To paint a picture, live game shows on television channels are typically joined by a few dozen people in the audience, who then get to play games for a plethora of prizes. With Trivizia’s Jeeto Naye Andaz Say, the platform will essentially become the next best venue for participating in such games, with an improved touch of experience, learning, and rewards.
