The Mail on Sunday: Interactive Christmas Quiz
Description
The Mail On Sunday: Interactive Christmas Quiz is a DVD that was given away with a UK newspaper in 2007, it can be played as a single player game or by up to four players/teams.
Players select an avatar at the start of the game, there are six to choose from the Christmas Fairy, Santa, a Penguin, a snowman, Rudolf the reindeer or the carol singer. Throughout the game they are referred to by these avatars so the unnamed voice will say "Christmas Fairy you're up next", "Penguin it's your bonus round", "Carol Singer you scored eleven points in that round, well done" and so-on.
The quiz consists of five themed rounds Television, Food & Drink, Film, Pot Luck, and Music. Each round has seven questions and the players / teams take it in turn answering the questions using the DVD remote to select their answer. The selected answer is NOT shown on the screen as the DVD remote is then passed to the next player/team so that they can also select an answer. At the end of the round the game shows the teams' scores and gives the option of showing the correct answers to each question. After the end of round two and throughout the game from that point the cumulative points are also shown.
The game has a 'Bonus Christmas Round' which appears once for each player at some random point in the game. In a single player game the question will be a 'Name That Christmas Tune' in five seconds while in a multiplayer game the question could be musical or it could be a charade. While each normal question is worth one point a bonus question scores five points.
The game has in-game instructions which are voiced by an unnamed actor.
