    • Fun Factor (1-10): 6
    • Worth Buying (1-10): 4

    This is another game where people must guess numerical answers to trivia questions and get rewarded for being close.

    I would rate this game as rather average for its genre, worse than Wits & Wagers from last year, but better than Take a Wild Guess from this year. The graphics are fine (although I still have no idea what that guy with the @ sign above his head is supposed to mean), the questions are okay but not particularly interesting, and the same goes for the gameplay.
