Chocolate is made from the seeds of the cacao tree.
True. Cacao seeds, often called beans, are fermented, dried and roasted, then ground into chocolate. The tree grows only in warm, humid regions close to the equator.
Bats are blind.
False. All bats can see, and some species see quite well. Many also use echolocation, sending out high-pitched sounds and listening to the echoes to find insects in the dark.
An octopus has three hearts.
True. Two hearts pump blood through the gills and one pumps it around the rest of the body. The main heart stops beating while the octopus swims, which is one reason it prefers to crawl.
We have summer because Earth is closer to the Sun at that time of year.
False. Seasons come from the tilt of Earth's axis, which changes how directly sunlight hits each half of the planet. Earth is actually closest to the Sun in early January.
Vanilla comes from the seed pods of a kind of orchid.
True. Vanilla grows on a climbing orchid. Its flowers open for only a day, so the plants are usually pollinated by hand, which is why real vanilla is costly to produce.
What is True or False?
True or False is PlayWord's daily trivia quiz: every day brings five true or false questions with answers, about history, geography, nature, science, the human body or popular myths, and you decide whether each one is true or false.
After every answer you see straight away whether you were right, with a short explanation of the facts. A round takes about two minutes, a nice warm-up before the other daily games.
How to play
- Read the statement and tap True or False. On a phone you can also swipe the card right (true) or left (false); on a computer use the → and ← keys.
- The card turns green or red and the explanation appears. Next (or Enter) brings the next statement.
- The statements go from easy to hard: two easy, two medium, one hard. Two or three of them are true each day.
- Answers are final, with no timer and no hints. At the end you see your score and all five statements with their explanations.
Tips
- Don't rule a statement out just because it sounds odd: the most surprising ones are often true.
- Well-known myths, like the goldfish with a three-second memory, often show up as false statements.
- Watch the numbers: a false statement is often off only by a year, a distance or an amount.
