What are the correct answers to the Yervha’s questions in Deathloop? The Yervha, a.k.a. Queen of Riddles, is a trivia machine in Deathloop. If you can answer all 10 of its questions correctly you’ll win a prize! A very modest prize, but a prize nonetheless. And who doesn’t love a good trivia challenge? You certainly seem to, since you’re here!
The Yervha’s questions are all about the lore of Deathloop, focusing on the history of Blackreef, the AEON Program, and the Visionaries. It’s a multiple choice quiz, but just to make things a bit more difficult, there are eight possible answers to each question and you lose if you get even one of them wrong. This makes it difficult to brute-force a win, so you’ll need to dig deep into your lore documents (or read this guide) if you want to beat the machine.
Since this guide contains trivia answers to questions about Deathloop’s lore, expect spoilers both for the quiz and the overall story.

It’s possible to solve the answers to all of the Yervha’s questions by paying careful attention to Deathloop’s lore documents. But as you’ll see, the wording on some of the Yervha’s questions is pretty obscure, and working out which bit of flowery prose is the correct answer can still be tough.

What is the reward for beating the Yervha?
Upon answering all 10 questions correctly and winning the quiz, a few items will drop into the dispensing tray on the machine. Your prize is randomised, but will usually be made up of low-tier weapons and trinkets. Hey, I did say it was a modest reward.
So what’s the point of playing the Yervha then? Well, it’s fun if you’re the sort of person who loves a geeky pub quiz, plus putting it all together can help your understanding of the game’s story. And for the completionists out there, The Yervha is also one of five games-within-a-game you need to beat in Deathloop in order to unlock the achievement “A Charlie Montague Game”.
Where can you find the Yervha in Deathloop?
The Yervha is located in Karl’s Bay and can be visited at any time of day once you can access that location. In order to do this, you just need to have finished the tutorial mission “The Longest Day” and its follow-up Arsenal Lead “Ubiquity”.
You’ll find the Queen of Riddles building on what passes for the main street in Karl’s Bay. It’s quite a small building, but hard to miss for a couple of reasons. Its next-door neighbour is a taller building clad with TVs displaying images of giant eyeballs; and the Yervha itself is housed in a shack with giant arrows pointing to the entrance and “Queen of Riddles” written on the front wall.
Depending on what time of day you visit, there might be Eternalists in the building, so proceed with caution and take them out if need be before settling in for a good old-fashioned pub quiz trivia machine.
