Description official description
Trivial Pursuit is an adaptation of the board game of the same name. The game can be played in two modes. Classic-mode is an exact duplicate of the original game. The players control a cake-form which can hold six pieces. The board is shaped like a wheel and divided into squares with six of them being so-called category headquarters. The goal of the game is to land on each of those category headquarters and answer the corresponding question correctly which in turn earns the player a corresponding piece to fill up the cake-form. Once he has collected all six pieces, the player has to move back to the center of the board for the final question. If he gets the answer right, he wins the game.
To get on the category headquarters, the up to four players or bots (virtually) throw a six-sided dice. Every player can roll the dice as many times as he manages to answer the question corresponding to the category of the square he lands on after moving his cake-form. The same system is used in Pursuit-mode but instead of collecting six pieces to win, the sole goal is to get from one end of the custom-made board to the other.
