Toys and Games Reviews of Trivial Pursuit Genus 5
Customer Review: I'm finally in the target market segment!
Summary: 4 Stars
The first edition of Trivial Pursuit (early 80s?) was a great game that contributed to the emergence of the whole social games genre. But as a young teenager, I knew nothing about JFK's cabinet members, the rat pack, or dead movie stars, and this made the game impossibly difficult (and unbearably long). Between then and now, the questions have been modernized AND we've all gotten older and more experienced. Genus 5 is perfectly targeted at the 30ish crowd, and more playable than the original for those younger or older. The questions are fairly balanced and reasonable.As always, the metagame of Trivial Pursuit (the board part) is, well, trivial and adds little of interest to the game play. It's really just a framework for asking each other trivia questions and there is no significant strategy involved. The artwork is pretty uninspired as well.
Overall, Trivial Pursuit Genus 5 Edition is a solid, more playable version of a classic game.
