Table of Contents Introduction & Game Suggestions If this bookdoes not display correctly on your device, please let us know! It wasa difficult manuscript to format, and although we tried to test it onevery available platform, there will undoubtedly be some hiccups. Thenice thing about ebooks is that they can be easily updated, and thenew version will magically appear in your digital library. The triviaquestions in this book are structured similarly to a card from theTrivial Pursuit board game in that there are six categories. We chosethat format for simplicity, because it's already familiar to triviagame aficionados. There the similarity ends. The TriviaGeeks' format allows easy adaptation of book to multi-player game invirtually any setting with the addition of a single die to roll (or arandom number generator app).
A sample score card is included at theend of the book along with a link to a printable version. Deluxe game kitsmay also be available via The Trivia Geeks' website that include atablet of printed score cards and 3 differently-colored dice. To make gameplay easier, the questions are provided in optional multiple choiceformat. As a means of leveling the field, expert players can bedenied access to the multiple choice answers while novice playersreceive the hints. To make gameplay more difficult, each question also includes a point value whichcan be used with or without the multiple choice option. Players canchoose a target number of points per category rather than simply afixed number of questions to be correctly answered.
Unlike atraditional board game format, however, the number of simultaneousplayers is unlimited. There is no game board to navigate or tinypieces to lose. Instead, the game is designed to be playable invirtually any environment. The player whosebirthday is closest to today goes first and play proceeds in whateverdirection is preferred: clockwise, counter clockwise, by order ofbirthdays, by age.... To determine thecard from which thequestion should be asked, the player rolls the die twice: The 1stroll is multiplied by the current time's minute. The 2nd roll is thenadded to the product from the 1st roll.
In this manner, it ispossible to access each of the 360 cards. Lastly, theplayer rolls the die to determine from which category the questionshould be asked with 1 = The Dark Arts, 2 = Hogwarts, 3 = MagicalPeople, and so on. Thus, it is possible to receive any of the 2,160total questions. Just aboutanything in the Harry Potter universe is fair game. That includes thebooks, the films, and anything posted on J.K. Rowling's Pottermorewebsite.
Some questions are so easy a Muggle can answer them, andothers are so obscure that even Hermione would have to visit thelibrary to look them up! The first playerto complete their score card in whatever manner chosen is the winner.The game can end at that point, or the remaining players can opt tocontinue play to determine subsequent place finishers. NOTE: If threedifferently colored dice are available, as with the deluxe game kit,all three can be rolled simultaneously with the colors representingtime factor, addend, and category. For ease ofnavigation, the CARD INDEX on the following page links to each card. Gushing praise,polite feedback, and questions are welcome via the Trivia Geekswebsite. Please tag your social media posts with #triviageeks sowe're sure to see them!
