Verdict

The answers could be found inside the head of your average vole, so at least you'll feel clever.

Are you stupid?

There’s no reason this should be on a disc when it would have been perfect fodder for an XBLA release. You can’t really do much with Trivial Pursuit, besides having a fancy visual board and animations when the pieces move, a whole host of questions and some online options, and we can think of literally nothing else we could add. You’ll find all that here, along with some of the strangest questions you’ll ever be asked to answer.

They’re all over the place in terms of quality and difficulty, so you won’t know if you’re really clever or really stupid.
It has a nice option to earn extra points by guessing whether your opponents will get their questions right, but what else can we say? It’s a board game; if you’ve played this in real life it’s exactly the same, only slightly less three-dimensional. The questions really are some of the oddest things and can barely even be classed in their categories; you’ll be left scratching your head for all of the wrong reasons. It’s relatively fun for a short while, but this should be on XBLA.

Final Verdict

A strange one, this. Fun to play with friends for a while, but the questions range from interesting to just plain stupid, and this really should be DLC. That’s what DLC is for! 4.2/10
