Like Geeks Who Drink, but portable and digital. Beer optional.

I love to do "Geeks Who Drink" when I can, but I can't swing it most weeks. Help me find a trivia game app for my Android phone that satisfies my trivia craving. (More requirements inside)

Most trivia apps I can find have two problems for me:
1) The questions are just waaaay too easy. Or they make you go through a bajillion super easy "levels" before you get to the good stuff.
2) They're timed, or you're playing against a live opponent like in "Quiz Geek," so I can't handle interruptions without spoiling a whole game. I don't have much distraction-free time to play games and any games I play must be interruptable.

I just want to answer trivia questions that are clever, original, and challenging. The difficulty and originality of the weekly "Geeks Who Drink" questions are about my speed.

Can I find that in a handy app for my phone? I'd be willing to pay. Because I'd just play the one game.

It's not an app, but you'd probably love Learned League (the site is here, although googling it may be a better explanation of the whole thing). If you'd like an invite, many mefites, myself included, are probably happy to help. Unfortunately the next round won't start for a little while but it's definitely quality trivia and without the time pressure.

Seconding Learned League. The only downside I see from your requirements is that it's only 6 questions per day, but it is a lot of fun.
