The_Impossible_Quiz_The_Question_108_Game_Over — The Impossible Quiz The Question 108 Game Over

An Example of a game over in The Impossible Quiz

A Game Over is the outcome of losing all of your lives in many video games, including the The Impossible Quiz series.

The Impossible Quiz Demo

Screen Shot 2017-05-08 at 8.52 — The game over screen for Question 1

In The Impossible Quiz Demo, the screen is white, with red text reading "Incorrect!", a "Retry" button, and an "Arrgh! I give up!" button. TIQD does not have a life counter, and getting any question wrong results in an instant game over.

Unique to this game is that each question features a different "splash text", excluding the final question, which simply sends the player straight back to the main menu if they click the wrong item.

The Impossible Quiz Beta

In the unreleased The Impossible Quiz Beta, the screen is white, with red and yellow text reading "Incorrect!", a green "Retry" button and a red "Give up... Like an ARSE" button. Just like the Demo, the Beta did not have a life counter, and presumably would have given an instant game over upon clicking an incorrect answer.

The Impossible Quiz

In The Impossible Quiz, the Game Over screen is black and green, with red text that reads "GAME OVER". There is also a "TRY AGAIN?" button, which appears to be made out of ink or paint. A fake Game Over screen appears in Question 107, where you have to wait for it to disappear to continue. Clicking "TRY AGAIN?" on this fake screen makes you get a real Game Over. It is the only quiz which does not have a "GIVE UP" button (the most likely reason why you cannot give up is because you must prove Splapp-Me-Do wrong with the quiz name by completing it). There are 3 lives in TIQ.

The Impossible Quiz 2

In The Impossible Quiz 2, the Game Over screen is purple, with the usual "TRY AGAIN!" button and a returned "GIVE UP..." option. It reuses the same sound effect from the Demo. It also uses a "YAAAAAAY!" sound effect when clicking "TRY AGAIN?". A glitch exists where getting a Game Over on Question 1 may make you go to Question 2 instead. There are 5 lives in TIQ2.

The Impossible Quiz Book

Chapter 1+3 Game Over transition.
Chapter 2 error message.
Chapter 2 Game Over message.
Chapter 2 Game Over options.

In The Impossible Quiz Book, the screen varies by chapter.

In Chapters 1 and 3, the screen goes black and drips with blood from the top. A cat and crossbones symbol appears briefly before the "GAME OVER!" text fills the screen along with the 2 options "ONE MORE GO!" and "I GIVE UP". If the game over was caused by a bomb that exploded, it will also feature a burning Chris knocked across the screen as a result of the blast.

In Chapter 2, the Guide to the Galaxy will display a glitching screen with an error message and Phlovomites, followed by the "GAME OVER" flashing. After that, Chris will face palm and present you with the "TRY AGAIN :D" and "GIVE UP D:" choices. If you try again, a glitch occurs, which gives you a free Lifebuoy on your next attempt.

A similar glitch to the one in TIQ2 exist in Chapter 3, where you may start at Question 102 if you get a Game Over at Question 101. There are 5 lives in TIQB like the exact amount of lives in The Impossible Quiz 2.
