Better than Trivial Pursuit?
Bought as a family game and turned out to be a lot of fun. There are four types of questions with the answer being: - 1) a common word 2) a number 3) a country, place, landmark, etc 4) entertainment (arts, music, books, films, etc). We really like the gameplay because most of the time the questions are read out to all of the players, there are four "treasure spaces" where the questions are answered by an individual. The slightly disappointing aspect is that the entertainment and country questions are mainly American based (we have yet to find a question on the UK) and so it doesn't get 5 stars from us, but it is fun to play and feels more co-operative than Trivial Pursuit.

Really good fun
The other night three of us sat down to play and found ourselves having such a good time. My mother in law, wife and I were giggling a lot. It's so much better than Trivial Pursuits, since the questions are do-able, but against the clock. So it's fun. It doesn't make you feel small, and when it's one person's turn, all the others are answering the questions. We kept laughing that "it makes stupid people feel more intelligent and intelligent people feel more stupid".
I'm so hooked that I'm trying to cram it into my case to take on holiday to Spain tomorrow.

Great game for those who like riddles and puzzles
I was a little hesitant when I bought this game, as I loved The Da Vinci Code but wasn't sure what the game would be like. Luckily I wasn't disappointed, the clues are a good range of general knowledge, lateral thinking, code-breaking and anagrams and many contain the answer within them if you spot it!

One thing I liked about this game is that one person asks the questions and everyone else answers them, with the fastest answer getting the most tokens, but all correct answers gaining something. The riddles are very original too and aren't simple trivial questions, for example:

I’ve a golden head, a golden tail too,
At any time, you’ll never see the two.
