Silicon Valley Startup Legends is a 5-question AI-hosted trivia round about origin stories of the world's biggest tech companies, voiced by Blaze and playable in about 3 minutes with no signup.
The round keeps the energy fast and upbeat and the difficulty stays balanced for mixed audiences.
"Silicon Valley Startup Legends" isn't a softball pack. Rated medium difficulty with a fun tone, it goes after real knowledge of origin stories of the world's biggest tech companies — not just surface-level trivia.
5 questions on a 20-second clock — 3 minutes of play if you don't stall. Blaze voices every question and every reveal. Blaze treats every round like a championship final — intense, loud, competitive.
Blaze pulls from Founding Moments, Early Company Names, Key Founders, Initial Locations, Evolution Of Brands, and Industry Disruption. You won't see the questions listed here; half the challenge is not knowing which angle Blaze is about to hit.
