Postmaster's Challenge

Postmaster’s Challenge, a feature on the Smithsonian National Postal Museum’s Web site, offers online visitors a chance to “master the post” through an interactive trivia game in which players answer questions about postal history.

Each Postmaster’s Challenge round consists of 11 questions on a variety of topics including general postal history knowledge, transportation history and stamp collecting.

Players who answer all the questions correctly earn the 1 million “postage credits” needed to win the game. Players are given three opportunities to “ask a postal clerk” for answer help; if a player gives a wrong answer, the correct one is provided so the player can use that knowledge to earn more points the next time around.
