Product Description

Editorial Review

A decade's worth of outrageous story lines, and funny, intelligent writing has garnered a loyal following for The Simpsons--and no character on the show has been more popular than the TV family's patriarch, Homer J. Simpson. But after watching those hundreds of episodes and spending millions of brain cells remembering all that trivia, what are Simpsons fans to do with their extra time? To the rescue comes this Homer-specific trivia game packed in a handy tin case. The questions are divided into five difficulty levels, though even the easy questions presuppose a deep knowledge of Simpson lore. Players will soon discover that in the game's multiple choice questions, the funniest answer is always correct. The directions for actual gameplay can get a bit confusing, and, though the setup allows people of various levels of expertise to play together, this won't be much fun for non-Simpsons fans. Hardcore fans will have a blast just reading the well-researched questions. The collectable tin case, shaped like Homer's head, is eye-catching on a bookcase or shelf, and an included miniposter featuring some 300 characters makes for an attractive wall hanging, too.

I'm more than an avid Simpsons fan.. I was very excited to purchase Homer's Trivia Game, and I was relatively certain that my plethora of Simpsons knowledge would be more than enough to conquer any question. I was wrong. This game is DIFFICULT! There are five levels of questions and I would classify levels 4 and 5 as "super hard". It's also worth noting that this is not a simple trivia game--there are rather involved directions and other, non-trivia actitivties required to win. (Including drawing and beat-the-clock) All in all, this is a must for any Simpsons fan!

This review is from: The Simpsons: Homer's Trivia Game (Toy)

This game is a lot of fun for the die-hard simpsons fan. It has five levels, one being the easist, and five being the hardest. The first level is ridiculously easy, with questions that even someone who watches the Simpsons on television once a month would get correct. The level five questions are ridiculously hard, as least for me. I am guessing that one would have to watch a perticulare episode at least three times to get a level five question about it right. To win the game, is very impossible. The game includes a charades round to end the game which is pretty hard, but has funny simpsons quotes to act out. I would recommend this game for any Simpsons fan big or small!
Happy Holidays!
