Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Bridge

Bridge uses a standard deck of cards. Partners (North and South vs East and West) work together to decide how many tricks they can take. One player in each hand has to lay his/her cards on the table and let his/her partner play them. That person is the "dummy".

Answer: Cribbage

The most points you can get from a single hand in Cribbage during the Show portion of scoring is 29. But there is no possible way to score 19, 25, 26, or 27 points during the Show... veteran players often refer colloquially to a hand scoring zero points as having a score of nineteen. Special thanks to Sir John Suckling for bringing this game to being.

Answer: Go Fish

"Go Fish" is also known as "Fish" and "Goldfish". The game has been around since at least 1861, when it was mentioned in a book by August Smith.

Answer: Trivial Pursuit

Since its original Genus Edition, Trivial Pursuit has become extremely popular. Variations of the game include the Silver Screen Edition, a Star Wars edition, and many more.

5. Poodle78 enjoys playing a game of kings and queens. He moves pawns, bishops, rooks, and knights as well. The object is to trap your opponent's king. What is his game?

Answer: Chess

Chess evolved from an ancient Indian game called chaturanga. Competitive chess started to become popular in 1834. Heavyweight boxing champion Lennox Lewis played chess every day during training for his bouts. He felt it important to keep his mind as engaged as his body.

6. Carolinaboy54 loves puzzles. His favorite involves putting numbers 1 through 9 in squares to make lines across and down with no repeats. What puzzle game does he like?

Answer: Sudoku

Sudoku comes in many levels and has many variations. Newer puzzles involve letters instead of numbers and larger grids.

7. TubaJoe has been known to play a game where he conquers the world. This game involves cards, dice, and armies of game pieces. What does TubaJoe like to play?

Answer: Risk

Risk involves taking armies across the continents until you have conquered all of the other players. Variations include "Risk: Dominate the World" and "Risk: Let the Cat Fight Begin".

Answer: Bananagrams

The lettered tiles come in a yellow banana shaped pouch. The game starts with someone yelling "split," and the tiles from which everyone draws is called the "bunch"

9. Eggman 23 really enjoys playing Monopoly. Which group in Monopoly gives you the best return on your investment?

Answer: The orange; St. James, Tennessee, and New York

You may have thought it was Boardwalk and Park Place. There's a card to advance one to Boardwalk and the rents ARE the highest. The orange, though, are easy to hit leaving jail. They are cheap to build up quickly. With hotels, you'll soon be the moneybag.

Answer: Backgammon

While no one person invented backgammon, many similar games have been played throughout many centuries. One of these games was found in the tomb of Tutankhamen.
