Toys and Games Reviews of Trivial Pursuit Genus IV

Customer Review: Extremely Up-to-date
Summary: 5 Stars

A lot of that still holds true for today. This Edition, quite justifialy, is a modern Trivial Pursuit. A lot of the stigma felt amongst younger players (and many, many adults) was that Trivial Pursuit was simply too difficult unless you had an Honors degree at Harvard or Oxford. I read reviews saying that it has been dumbed down, Parker have simply removed a lot of the older relating questions which simply hold no reference to todays below thirty generation. It became pretty obvious that they were cutting off half their target audience with entertainment questions solely concerned with Abbott and Costello and I Love Lucy etc. Also, a lot more Modern History questions appear, not just ancient British Royalty and Spanish invasions, Nelson Mandella and Tiger Woods now turn up. Some people's distent is clearly due to their rememberence of Trivial Pursuit as a game that was relevant to them in their youth, and now they have grown, Trivial Pursuit has grown on to another generation, with questions which may no longer be relevant to them. Whatever happens, you can't stop evolution.

Still the greatest party game around, and no Moops in sight.
