Kneipenquiz

Das Original

 

Quiz game based in pubs and taverns, with 750 questions on General Knowledge, Literature, Science, Sports, Film, History and Useless Knowledge.

You play as a team against the game which provides four opponents. You choose one of three available levels of difficulty – each is represented by four beer varieties and their markers plus 30 scoring tiles with colored backsides, green / easy-peasy for ease, blue / show time for difficult and red / in your dreams for hellish.

Scoring tiles for five questions are on display, the show how many steps the Bottle markers will advance for each question and sometimes a bonus for the players’ Owl team.

In a round, the team writes down the answers to five questions and can rearrange the scoring tiles. After five minutes, answers are checked. The Owl marker moves one step for each correct answer, and then the opposing Bottle markers move according to the scoring tiles, red number for a wrong answer and green one for a correct answer. So, when the scoring tile shows the yellow Bottle and a red 32 and a green 1, the yellow bottle marker moves 1 step for a correct answer and 3 steps for a wrong one. When the Owl marker is in front of all Bottle markers on the scoring track at the end of five rounds, all players win together.

If you want to play team vs. team, each team scores one point for each correct answer and after five rounds the team with most points wins.

Cute, well-made and with marvelous components. The mechanism is astonishing, as the level of difficulty is not regulated by the questions’ difficulty, but by the points for the opposing markers on the scoring tiles.
