I thought with a game focusing on trivia, it would be neat to have the questions and answers all in one place so one could more easily get through the questions (and also not have to spend too much time struggling if you're unlucky with too many questions in a row or read the info wrong wherever it was looked up).
The spreadsheet below should have all the current questions and their answers (as of 08.12.2020), which totals to 69. If there are any questions that are missing, feel free to comment and I'll add it!
(Also, a lil' poll, since this feature was just released)
