Disney Trivia

This is different than the Trivial Pursuit. It was put out by Disney with Mattel. The game comes in a metal film can, and has cute pawns with mouse ears rather than wedges. The board itself is also shaped as a Mickey head, with ears that fold in to a circle for storage in the round container.

Play is pretty standard trivia mechanics, using 5 categories of:

Animation
Film
Song
Personalities
Mousellaneous.

All questions are Disney-related (unlike Trivial Pursuit that has only 1 or 2 Disney questions per card.)

Includes 400 Adult cards (2000 questions) and 100 Kids' cards (500 questions).

Playtime depends on your knowledge of Disney, if you go to the parks and movies often, you'll get questions right and end the game more quickly.

Family Guy Trivia Game

From the back of the box.

Peter, the big, lovable loaf who always says what's on his mind. Lois the adoring mother who can't figure out why her baby son keeps trying to kill her. Their daughter Meg the teen drama queen who's constantly embarrassed by her family. Chris, the beefy 13-year-old who wouldn't hurt a fly, unless it landed on his hot dog. Stewie, the maniacal one-year-old bent on world domination. And Brian, the sarcastic dog with a wit as dry as the martinis he drinks.

Now at long last, a Trivia Game based on television's most dysfunctional cartoon family!

1000 Trivia Questions will keep you guessing-- and laughing!

Logo Board Game

The game's theme is based on answering questions relating to popular advertising logos and brands. Players move their pawns around a spiraling board for answering questions correctly relating to a logo, until they get to the Winning Zone at the centre of the board. Movement depends on the successful answering of questions to proceed to the next coloured area on the board.

Different countries have different versions of the game, with many local brands represented in each edition.

There are 400 cards with 4 questions on each card - blue, green, yellow and red.

The winning player is the first person to get around the board by answering the most questions correctly. They then win by answering all the questions on a card (blue, green, yellow and red question) whilst in the Winning Zone.

Game play alternates as players take it in turn to ask questions and move around the board.

Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

From Hasbro:

Now you can bring the hit TV quiz show home! Find out if you make the grade!

Play the game that pits the kids against the grownups for ultimate bragging rights. All you have to do to claim victory is answer 11 questions that the average 5th grader knows.

Sounds like child's play, but would you know...

Which U.S. President is featured on the face of a nickel?
What is the heaviest land animal?
What geologic era are we in right now?
A decagon has how many sides?

...or would you need to "cheat" off a classmate to answer correctly?

You may not have all the answers, but know you'll either walk away with the $1,000,000 prize or have to admit, "I am not smarter than a 5th grader."

Object: Be first to win a million dollars! If no player reaches the Million Dollar level, the
player with the most money wins the game.

Deadwood Studios USA

Time to film the latest western being produced at Deadwood Studios, makers of terrible western movies. All the special roles are up for grabs: "Man falling off roof", "Crying woman", "Stagecoach driver", "Dead man", and more. Yes, they're all available, and if you're good enough – that is, if you progress up through the "hack" levels represented by the number on your character's die – you may even get to play that complicated character part "Rear-end of Horse"!

In Deadwood Studios USA (originally published as Deadwood), players wander across the backlot each day, looking for acting jobs. Your actor is a six-sided die, and the number on top represents your status. (These dice are never rolled; they just show your status.) After you take a role in the movie, you can roll a die and try to "act", or you can "rehearse" to improve your odds. As you work, you'll earn money and fame, and you can trade those things at the casting office for higher status, which brings you the ability to take better-paying roles.

At the end of the game, you add up your money, fame, and status points, and the player with the highest score is the best actor at Deadwood Studios!
