📖 About This Game

Based on the American TV show that ran from 1980-1982 (along with a brief return in 1987), and from 1983 in Europe with greater success. Played over a 20-hex game board, two teams (one having one more teammate than the other) compete to answer questions with the initials given (What E holds sandcastles together? Electricity) and place their mark. The team to connect top-to-bottom or side-to-side wins the game.
