Each of MapleStory 2‘s minigames has its own set of challenges to deal with, but none are as utterly baffling as OX Quiz.
Recommended Videos
The OX Quiz returns from the original MapleStory and its questions are just as varied and obtuse in the sequel. It has questions about games, movies, classical music, sporting events, South Korea, and MapleStory 2 itself.
Despite the huge range of questions, it’s really not all that frustrating. It’s hard to get mad when there are no consequences and you get to watch others fail, too.
Many of the questions you’ll run into for the OX Quiz are plainly localized questions on very specific South Korean topics, such as the island known for squid or the country’s dialing code. It even has a question about Princess Maker 4, a Japanese raising sim game that never released in North America but sold wildly in South Korea. I love that game, but the question even being in the English version is confusing.
How to use the cheat sheet
You don’t have a lot of time to answer OX Quiz questions, so I’ve laid out the answers in a more convenient manner.
True questions are on the left, while false questions are on the right and are bolded. This means you can search for a term, see whether it’s bolded or not, and answer quickly in-game.
I recommend having this cheat sheet up in a separate window or on your phone. Once you get a question, search for the most important noun in the question here in this sheet. Just scrolling through is too slow, especially considering the number of answers.
Some of the questions are not phrased exactly as they are in-game, especially in the first few dozen. I’ll get these ironed out over time, but for now there are two different ways to search through the cheat sheet:
- Search for the primary noun – This can be fine to do, but be aware some topics are featured in multiple questions and some questions are exact opposites.
- Search for the start of a question – This will usually lead you to the right answer, but some of the first couple dozen or so questions are not all worded exactly right; this is being ironed out as the sheet is updated.
More OX Quiz answers will be added as I do more quizzes! I’ve been doing the quiz every time it comes up for several days but there seem to be hundreds of questions — these answers only scratch the surface, but don’t worry: I’ll definitely be adding more, as I myself would like an easy OX cheat sheet as well.
