Returnal trivia works because the roguelike shooter strands astronaut Selene on Atropos, dying and restarting through a shifting alien world. Fans can be tested on the biomes, the weapons and the story's unsettling mysteries.

A strong Returnal quiz can include Selene and her crashed ship Helios, the planet Atropos and its biomes from the Overgrown Ruins onward, the time loop and the cycle of death and rebirth, the alien weapons, artifacts and parasites, the enemies and bosses, the house sequences and the story's psychological twists, and the developer behind it. It works because it rewards players who pieced together the loop's fragmented narrative.
