About this deal

Even after four decades and several iterations, Genus 1 remains the best Trivial Pursuitedition. Hailed by many critics and players worldwide, the first edition of Trivial Pursuit really earned its title. There has not been another edition with such equally challenging and entertaining questions. The classic gameplay really seals the deal for most Trivial Pursuit lovers. See also: Trivial Pursuit (American game show), Trivial Pursuit (British game show), Trivial Pursuit: America Plays, and ru:Счастливый случай (телепередача) The genius (get it?) of Trivial Pursuit is its simplicity and easy ruleset. Anyone can understand how to play the game within a couple of minutes of sitting down at the table and having the concepts of Trivial Pursuit themes and Trivial Pursuit topics explained to them. Collecting the six different colored wedges in your playing piece—or pieces of cheese/cake/pizza depending on the group you play with—makes for a visually fulfilling task, especially when you are down to just one—let’s say the Trivial Pursuit yellow wedge—to complete your player piece and move to the end game. If you’re a seasoned player, you will find that most editions follow similar gameplay. Trivial Pursuit 2000s Edition focuses on, you guessed it, the 2000s! The game came out with 1,800 questions in the following categories: Places, Entertainment, Events, the Arts, Science & Tech, and Sports & Hobbies. This is a great edition for those who are looking for a change, as the gameplay is different.

The first category was called “America” and it offered questions about the country’s geography. “Americans” featured questions about, you guessed it, famous Americans. “Journey Through America” focused on history.

Q: True or false: Brazil was the first South American country to gain independence. A: False (It was Columbia)

Q: In the lunar cycle, does the waxing crescent and gibbous come before or after the full moon? A: Before These same categories can also be found in Trivial Pursuit Master Edition, the successor of the original Trivial Pursuit Genus. That means it is another classic edition of Trivial Pursuit that is suitable for adult players. The categories target general knowledge and follow the classic Trivial Pursuit Genus format. The Master Edition comes with a timer, which changes the gameplay slightly. Players are advised to start the timer as soon as the question is read out loud. This addition speeds up the game significantly. Players cannot spend longer than a few seconds on a question, so they’re forced to hurry up. It also makes the game more difficult. If you’re used to having your thinking time, you have to rewire your brain a little bit. Of course, you can play without a timer too. If that’s the format you prefer, the game becomes even closer to Genus. Baby Boomer Trivial Pursuit Categories Hitchhiker loses Trivial Pursuit rights battle".

Bicentennial Edition (1987) (Australia) (Master game set - released in time for the Bicentennial in 1988) [ failed verification]Trivial Pursuit Master Game - Young Players Edition (1984, released in both Master Game and Subsidiary Card Set editions) Trivial Pursuit prepared a special treat for all trivia lovers on its 20th anniversary. The brand new set of 3,600 questions celebrated the events of the past 20 years. If you think this edition was nothing but a summary of the past 20 years of Trivial Pursuit, you’re wrong! Unlike most Trivial Pursuit editions, this game had its own set of rules. In this version of the game, other players could attempt to answer questions that their opponents couldn’t. There were also different rounds that were not present in other Trivial Pursuit games. Finally, the questions were taken directly from the show for the best game show experience! Trivial Pursuit: Holiday Edition (1993) Trivial Pursuit doesn’t play when it comes to board games! The questions in this edition are very difficult, especially if you are not exactly a baby boomer. Even if you are, you will have a hard time answering some of the more obscure questions, which only makes it more fun. If you’re not a baby boomer, you can challenge your parents to a friendly game of trivia. They will probably enjoy it more than you, but you can’t turn down a challenge! How much do you mind outdated questions? The questions in Genus 1 are not necessarily outdated, they are just old. You should still be able to answer them if you’ve ever played the game before. What you’ll struggle with is the Entertainment category.
