Bar Trivia Quiz (I think)

Post by Cardinal Sin »

Couldn't see this mentioned in the other Gamesnet thread, so I've given it its own thread. It's very similar to pub quiz, but you can win up to £40 and you can't collect between rounds.

Its boniiiii are only achievable through not using a pass during an entire round (it gives between 1 and 3 try agains and passes at the start of the game). It also hands out sympathy free games when you lose sometimes (as opposed to Blockbusters when the free game is the end goal).

What lets it down is the spoilers. They can appear very early on, and almost at random (which year was Highgate Cemetry consecrated??? hmmm). It'll quite happily ask you the latin name for some obscure shrub one question, and the next it'll be enquiring which soap's characters drink in a pub called "The Queen Vic".

I won a £5 out of it (for a little more put in), but it's certainly one I would return to.

I've played this and found it tight as the proverbial gnat's whatsit. Agree it's pretty prompt with spoilers, and I found getting bonuses almost impossible. I visited Highgate Cemetery last weekend, funnily enough; bu**ered if I can remember when it opened, though!
