After all, there are only so many factoids you can get out of three movies! Well I’ll tell you the answer, in the guise of a little strategy lesson.

Now, you may be wondering how on earth they got enough questions to put six per card on an absolutely HUGE stack of cards. Not once have the photos seemed like anything other than window dressing – they don’t give you clues or anything. There’s this odd thing where some of the cards have photos that you show to the person who’s answering the question. The squares have photos from the movie in them, filmed over with color, which looks good. The colors are bright and jewel-toned, making for a much prettier board than the original Trivial Pursuit board. It seems to have a sort of sleep mode if you leave it alone long enough so it doesn’t waste power. So when the batteries run down we won’t bother buying more (and maybe we’ll stop using it before then). It’s kind of cute, but it also takes a lot longer than rolling a die, and the number can be tough to see on the little screen. You push his head down and listen to him burble and whistle and bleep until he displays a number from 1 to 6 for you. In the SW version, you get a several-inches-large plastic R2-D2. In the normal game, you roll a six-sided die to move around the board. So Leia’s blaster is looking a little… flaccid right now. The figures themselves are made of pewter – this means they’re a little soft, so, umm, how can I put this – well, it bends easily. Each one has slots for the color chips in the plastic base. They represent Luke, Leia, Han, and Darth Vader. The questions are all about the original trilogy of movies (Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi).īecause this is a game for 2-4 players (“Teens to Adults”), there are four tokens provided. In this case, the whole thing is Star Wars oriented. Once you have one chip of each color, you make your way back to the center of the wheel (where everyone started), and you have to answer one more question correctly, your choice of color. If you answer the question correctly and you’re on the extra-big square at the end of a wheel spoke, you get a little triangular chip of plastic of the same color to fit into your token.

If you get the answer right, you go again.

When you land your token on a square of a certain color, you answer that particular question on a card your opponent pulls out. (A really huge cache!) Each card has six questions on it – one for each color. The set comes with a huge cache of question-cards. The wheel and spokes are broken up into boxes of six colors. You have a game board with a big wheel on it, and six spokes. Pros: Visually appealing lots of fun for Star Wars fansĬons: Balance issues hard to come up with that many questions out of 3 movies
