For those of you not familiar with the televisual entertainment of our American cousins, Jeopardy is a popular quiz show with a standard three-contestant format and a slight twist.
The difference is that the quizmaster gives the answers and the contestants then have to respond with the questions, starting with some variation of the phrase "What is? In the first two rounds contestants make selections from one of six randomly chosen categories. Each category contains five questions - or rather, five answers - and the difficulty level of each is represented by cash values.
The more money the difficult the answer, the more money it's worth. Rather than each contestant answering specific answers, every selection is open to all - with the exception of Daily Double questions which we'll come to in a minute. In fact, no-one has to try to answer the questions at all. The reason for this becomes clear when you see that whereas a correct answer earns cash, an incorrect answer results in that amount being deducted from your total.
As mentioned earlier, Jeopardy! Within the first two rounds there is also a bonus feature, the Daily Double. This feature crops up once in the first round and twice in the second. When a contestant happens upon a square which hides a Daily Double then the format changes a little. Before seeing the answer, the person making the selection gets to wager a percentage of the money they've earned so far. If they get the question right, they double their money, if they get it wrong, they lose that amount.
Other players cannot jump in on the Daily Double questions. The second round is Double Jeopardy. However, all this means is that the cash values are doubled, as are the number of hidden Daily Double squares. The Final Jeopardy! Questions in Jeopardy! You can choose from three options: loose spelling, correct spelling both of which are fairly self-explanatory and the slightly more unusual computer-aided spelling.
With computer-aided spelling, the computer will monitor your letter entries, and suggest possible words from the vocabulary in its database. For instance, type in 'Ca' and the computer might produce 'Car'. Add an 'R' and an 'A', and the computer might suggest 'Caravan'.
In this way you can also tell whether your answer has a chance of being right from whether or not it actually appears in the vocabulary. Which brings us to the questions - one of the biggest failings of this game, at least as far as a European audience is concerned. See the pattern yet? Although categories like Biology and Nature are included, even they tend to have an American slant, and it's not uncommon to select say Biology and get an answer like 'An American who categorised every species of dung beetle in '.
There are categories which aren't specifically American, but they cover such popular subjects as Opera that's the singing, not the chat show and Artistic Quotations. This means that you won't necessarily like this just because you're a fan of Trivial Pursuit.
Gameplay in Jeopardy! Otherwise forget it. If Take 2 are going to convert Jeopardy! At the moment though, if you're a parent reading this review, don't under any circumstances buy your children this game - they'll never forgive you.
Buy 'em Goldeneye instead! How many video games based on Jeopardy do you think have been released over the years? I wonder if there is anyone out there who has a complete Jeopardy video game collection? As weird as that sounds it is something I would actually like to see. Anyway, today the game we are looking at is from and was put out by Hasbro Interactive. You do not have to be a brain surgeon to figure out that this game is a virtual representation of the hit TV show Jeopardy.
It follows it pretty well and tries to make you feel like you are actually on the show which is pretty cool. There are over questions in the game so the chances of you getting repeats is rather slim, unless you put hundreds of hours into the game of course. It features all the elements from the TV show which I think is pretty cool. What I have always liked about Jeopardy is that it is the kind of game that anyone can get into and this video game version is the same way.
As I said before, Jeopardy from is trying to be as close to the TV show as possible and the main way it does this is by putting the camera behind the desk, almost like you have a first-person view of what is going on. You have the Jeopardy board which is nice and clear and the game even features Alex Trebek which is cool and the wrestling fan of me whenever I see him always thinks of WrestleMania VII! Anyway, I do feel that they did a great job of capturing the look and feel of the show very well.
The gameplay is just like you would expect and want from a game that is based on Jeopardy so there is not really much they can do with the formula.
You can play against the AI and different difficulty settings will dictate how much of a challenge you get. You can also play with two human opponents which is a great deal of fun, way more fun than playing against the AI.
The game can be played in a classic mode which is like you were on the TV show, you there is a speed version which makes things go at a much quicker pace. I am not sure what the point of this is. If you ask me if you are playing this, you should want to have the full Jeopardy experience! I know that many people may not think much of a game like Jeopardy.
However, this game sets out to be a faithful representation of the TV show and I feel that it succeeds. That is not meant as a knock on this one though as it captures the feel of the show very well. If you like the show you will have fun with this. Interact with your friends and other players online using the audio chat, plus track your progress and compete with others through a variety of features such as the daily leaderboard!

Despite not having Alex Trebek this game is fun and worth a try, especially for die hard Jeopardy Players. Warning: like the game show the questions can be surprisingly difficult.
