Is Hooked free?

Yes. One haul a day is free. Five dollars, once, buys the extra modes. There is no monthly fee on the public pages.

The home page lets you play without a purchase and without an account. That free round is the Daily Haul: five categories, scored the same way for everyone, and it is the round that builds the streak. Rods from that streak are not listed as a paid unlock.

Hooked Pass is priced at $5 on the home page, the FAQ, the how-to-play page, and the terms. Those pages call it one-time. They name unlimited random rounds, crew play for up to five people, 1v1 duels, archive replay, and the removal of ads. A friend who joins your duel with the code does not pay.

Stripe processes the payment. The FAQ says refunds are limited to what the law requires. The pass sits on the account, and Restore a pass is how it moves to a new browser. If you never buy it, the daily game still opens.

Ads on the game itself are attributed to Ezoic on the official privacy page, with a consent step for the EU, EEA, and UK. Pass holders do not see them. This guide is separate and does not run that ad tag.

Store searches on 12 Nov 2026 did not find a matching app for this trivia game. Several different products use the name Hooked, so check the developer and description before downloading one. The price question and the download question are not the same question.
