Overview
What ABG knows about this game
Adaptation of the short-lived 1993 game show, in preliminary rounds players select categories and try to earn as many wedges as they can by correctly answering questions. Each player emcees one round. At the end of each preliminary round, a roll of the die determines who will get the chance to answer a bonus question. The final round comes after all the preliminary rounds. After a toss-up question to determine who controls the categories, one player keeps answering as long as s/he gives correct answers. Unlike regular Trivial Pursuit, in this version if a player gives a wrong answer, the other players may try to answer (except on a bonus question). The winner is the first player to fill his or her scoring token completely by answering two questions correctly in all six categories. The pictures on the box are from this version's pilot, which was made for syndication.
