Not for our generation June 14, 2001 17 out of 19 found this review helpful
This game is for Warner Bros. enthusiasts ONLY! Very obscure questions, very few an 8-29-year-old could answer.
I like it! April 14, 2000 I didn't let the negative reviews stop me from purchasing this game, being a trivia buff. I'm glad I didn't, because this isn't just about cartoons! It covers movies, t.v, cartoons, both classic and current. We played this game with a group of three, ages 17, 21 and 41 and everyone enjoyed it. I recommend it to anyone who has varied interests in all of these items.
A big letdown December 27, 1999 38 out of 44 found this review helpful
Normally, the specialized versions of Trivial Pursuit have been quite fun, but this version is the one and only dissapointment I have ever had from this line of otherwise fun games. The difficulty of the questions is the main obstacle; my friends and I (all 20-somethings) had never heard of most of the movies and TV shows in this game, and we thought we were real Loonie Tunes and Cartoon Network buffs. Why couldn't the game have stuck to it's advertising: Bugs, Daffy, Dorothy, Dexter's Lab, and Cow and Chicken? Because who would by a game with "Thor" and "The Maltese Falcon" -- the answers to at least 15 of the questions -- plastered all over the box? About as many people who would buy something like "Lifetime Movie of the Week Trivial Pursuit." A big letdown sums it all up: it's worth maybe one or two plays, and then it would look nice on your shelf, or in a display case to show off the attractive pewter figurines. Skip it.
Might be worth it if you get it cheap December 14, 1999 31 out of 35 found this review helpful
I've played twice now, and both times it was "okay" fun--not great, not awful (I can't imagine playing it time after time after time like the Genus editions). I also can't imagine ever playing a "long" game, as a short game takes enough time--since no one knows hardly any of the answers (most of the questions are quite obscure). I don't know what's up with the plastic-box card holder thing. It's not big enough to hold an entire row of cards, so you're always changing them, and it's not designed well either, so the cards don't sit in it nicely. The only really cool thing are the four pieces (Bugs, Batman, Scooby, and I forget!) and how the colored pies actually "lock" into place.
Dissappointing November 16, 1999 Well, perhaps I should have predicted this, but the questions are just impossible. I thought I (and the friend I bought this for) were true Warner Bros. cartoon buffs, but this was rediculous. Admittedly, we did not try the supposedly easier kiddie-cards. The image of Bugs is plastered all over the game, but we encountered maybe 2 questions about him and maybe 3 other Loony Tunes questions over the course of 3 hours. Many questions seemed to promote obscure shows on TV now (things you didn't even know were afiliated with Warner Bros.), perhaps to remind you that you should watch them. We were able to make the game hilariously fun, though, by having the question-reader (1) determine what was the best color to try to answer, and (2) employ whatever means possible to get the person to answer correctly - it was more like playing Taboo. I'm sure some people would enjoy and do well at this game, but BE WARNED!
