The Impossible Quiz Beta is an extended version of The Impossible Quiz Demo never released to the public, which only certain people have ever played. It had 10 extra questions in addition to the original 30 of the demo, some of which made it into the final game. It even included a checkpoint! All of this information was revealed via Splapp-Me-Do's Tumblr.
Answers
Out of the 10 additional questions, only one of scrapped questions has been seen during any of the full-length games, namely Question 31, though it can only be seen for a couple of frames in TIQ Book Chapter 3's ending sequence. However, due to a TIQ Admin's request in Splapp's Tumblr, on January 2014 he kindly posted clean pictures of Questions 31 to 35 and later Questions 36-40. Here's a summary with the content of each of them:
31. The task reads "Hover, click, hover, hover, click, click", and there's a six-button panel underneath. It is assumed that the answer to this question is to click the second, fifth and sixth button.
32. The task reads "Which axolotl is distressed?" and there are 4 axolotls underneath, one of them with big green eyes and a gaping mouth. It is assumed that the answer to this question is the stressed one.
33. Question 37 from The Impossible Quiz ("Can you get this question wrong?"), except all 4 buttons were removed and replaced with a big button saying "NO!" beneath it. The answer to this question is obviously to click "NO!".
34. Question 26 from The Impossible Quiz ("Which of these places doesn't exist?"), only Arsefacey was removed and Wetwang and Flangeworth were added. The answer to this question is "Flangeworth".
35. Question 28 from The Impossible Quiz ("What is this?!"). The options are the same, and the answer is still "Abundance".
36. Question 19 from The Impossible Quiz ("Colour in the correct order..."). The question is exactly the same as the one from TIQ.
37. There's 2 possible questions:
- This question didn't make it into any of the original quizzes. The task reads "Terry has dandruff. But where does he go shopping?" Hovering the mouse over "has dandruff" makes the answer "Asda" (also a market) appear. Splapp says, "this is an early version of question 51 in Impossible Quiz 2".
- Similar to Question 50 from The Impossible Quiz ("Remember...").
38. An early version of Question 24 from The Impossible Quiz. Here, hovering your mouse over the circles on the bottom of the screen would make letters appear on screen, forming the sentence "Click the top right hand corner".
39. Question 36 from The Impossible Quiz ("What do you call a wingless fly?"). The options are different, but the answer is still "A walk".
40. Objects would quickly flash on the screen, then you'd get the question "Which object appeared twice?", with the options being "Pen", "Cloud", "Microphone" and "Egg".
