Sep 21, 2026 — M5Stack is excited to announce TriviaPOD, a standalone trivia device developed in collaboration with Etermax, the company behind the Trivia Crack universe.
Built on the hardware foundation of M5Stack StopWatch, TriviaPOD has been customized with a new design and a dedicated Trivia Crack experience. No phone. No app. No complicated setup. Just grab it, spin it, and answer.
Pre-orders are now open through the M5Stack Store. The first 500 units are available at a special early-bird price of USD 39.90; once they're gone, the price returns to normal.
A Ready-to-Play Trivia Experience
TriviaPOD is a tiny trivia machine built for real family play, designed to be picked up and played straight away. Spin the wheel, choose an answer, and keep the game moving.
With no phone notifications, ads, or endless scrolling to get in the way, TriviaPOD keeps the focus on the questions and the people playing together. It's perfect for a quick round during a break, a family game night, or a friendly challenge with friends.
How to Play
Getting started with TriviaPOD is simple.
Turn on the device, tap Play, and spin the wheel to choose a category. Read the question, move through the answer options using the physical buttons or touchscreen, and confirm your choice.
Correct answers help Willy, TriviaPOD's lovable mascot, grow in Trivia Pet mode. Additional game modes offer different ways to play, from quick solo trivia and memory challenges to one-on-one Duel play over Bluetooth.
