This is based on the popular Jeopardy! TV game show. In this digital incarnation, 4 players compete at answering reverse trivia questions in trademark Jeopardy! fashion - i.e., the host provides the answer and a player has to provide the questions. As many of 4 human players can participate, with the remaining slots filled by the computer. Competition takes place in quarter-final, semi-final, and final round modes. A player will select a question from one of 6 categories. The game gives the answer to the question and the players use their controllers to buzz in. At that point, a player has 80 seconds to spell out the question (and the computer has already provided the "What is..." question preamble). In the player gets the question wrong, that player loses money and the remaining players have an opportunity to buzz in. It's based on the short-lived version of the show, Super Jeopardy!, in which dollar values were replaced by points, and it was a "grandmaster tournament" of sorts whereby top players from the show compete in a 13-week marathon to determine the champion of champions. The game sports VGA graphics and very difficult questions, similar to the show. |
