How to solve Question 24
- Check that you are playing the original The Impossible Quiz, not its demo.
- Find the small box of colored stripes in the question.
- Move your cursor quickly back and forth across the stripes. Letters appear as you pass over them; keep scanning until you can read the instruction.
- Click the V in “Lives” at the bottom-left of the screen. The revealed instruction is “Click the ‘V’ in lives.”
The Impossible Quiz Wiki describes this question as safe and unskippable; in that walkthrough, “safe” means you cannot lose a life on the question. The Question 24 walkthrough also identifies the hidden instruction.
Make sure you have the right Question 24
The numbering differs between the original game and its demo. The demo’s Question 24 is a bucket riddle; the wiki says it appeared as Question 14 in the full game. The demo’s Question 24 page identifies that version. If your screen does not show colored stripes and the “Lives” label, check which game or version you opened before trying another answer list.
Cursor and touch controls
The walkthroughs describe moving a cursor over the stripes and clicking the V. A browser-hosted version gives the same answer, theimpossiblequiz.info. Available information does not establish whether every mobile port or mirror preserves the same interaction, so touch controls may vary by build.
