Overview

A trivia game that has its theme based on various educational stages. The board is divided in three parts: Chemin des écoliers (pupil's path), Collège Saint-Lauréat (St. Winning college) and Université Gens-Brillants (Bright-People university). This game is full of humor and puns (the previous name list is a good example) but is strongly aimed at the Québec (Canada) French speaking population. It is, in fact, a very popular game in this region. So popular that it spawned two extensions to the game and a kid version : L'Apprenti Docte Rat.
