DESCRIPTION

Although the basic concept is the same, Trivial Pursuit differs from its more popular board game counterpart in a number of ways: there are four game pieces to collect instead of six, questions seem easier as they are multiple choice, and three wrong answers ends the game for that participant. Questions are along the lines of those of the original Genus edition of the board game, and players can portray one of four characters, including the semi-cleverly named Smartacus and Cleofactra. The graphics are nice and colorful, if a little blocky, and each character is accompanied by his or her theme own music. ~ Brett Alan Weiss, All Game Guide
