This is one of those games that I figured would be okay. I mean, how could you ruin a quiz game? Just copy the format of the show, throw in a lot of questions, and that's about it. They took that rule seriously and left it at that. The introductions of characters, kids, and show are SO annoying and bad. All players get their choice of a thin blonde woman or a thin blonde woman. You have your choice of kids which includes a black boy, an asian girl, a white boy, a blonde white girl, and another girl who was either brunette or black, I can't remember which. It felt like a JC Penny's commercial and too forced. The voiceovers don't come close to matching the characters movements OR timing. Think "Godzilla".

The actual game is annoying, the questions are ridiculous (and not in their cattegories at all), and it's just an annoying setup. I don't know how to describe the game except as terribly mediocre. Scene It is so much better. Even simple character selection and maybe a few different kids could improve it, but it's the same visuals over and over again. It's maybe a decent pickup at $10-$15, but no more than that.

Fast paced challenging to my fifth grader, wife and me. This is a great game. Great family fun an a good educational tool.

We purchased this game for entertainment while company was here for the holidays. We all laughed and laughed as we discovered that we aren't smarter than a fifth grader! The questions were challenging and interesting. The only downside to this version of the game is that you cannot change the player...she is a blonde, but she does look like we feel when we get it right or wrong. I definitely would recommend it to everyone who is interested in expanding their knowledge, and especially for those kids who think they know it all.

The game is fun and easy to play. It is a great game with several game modes that allows for different fun times. My friends and I play it together and it is great fun.

Such a fun game! When you win you feel sooo great! It's challenging, makes you feel for all those contestants you make fun of. Just a top notch fun game for the whole family!!!!
