Good for Some Occasional Trivia Fun

I picked this up to play together with my partner after we saw a couple different YouTubers play it. It's decent but very barebones. There's some good variety in the questions, it's easy to control and understand how to play, and it's cool that you can unlock question packs as you play, but that's where the positives end.

I picked this up to play together with my partner after we saw a couple different YouTubers play it. It's decent but very barebones. There's some good variety in the questions, it's easy to control and understand how to play, and it's cool that you can unlock question packs as you play, but that's where the positives end.

The aforementioned grinding required to unlock question packs is really too much if you aren't great at trivia. It's easy to get tripped up on a single question even with the lifelines like "phone a friend" and if you don't make it to the end you get either 0, 40, or 200 points depending on how far you got. The question pack we wanted first was the Disney one, which costed 2500. So when most of your runs give you 40 points you have to play a LOT of them, and that's for a single pack.

The animation and pacing in the game is also very bad. After pretty much every bit of dialogue there's an awkward bit of silence before the next one as the host and your avatar contestant stare at each other, sometimes complimented by the host waving his hands around a little for no reason. It can be good for a few laughs as a result, but it can also make each run drag out so thankfully they give you the ability to skip just about all dialogue by pressing A if you prefer.

Would recommend if you find it for very cheap and don't mind the low budget quality of the presentation. We sometimes put it on and have a good time making fun of the awful animation. I have heard the Steam version has really bad volume problems though so maybe avoid that one. I played on PS5.
