I know there have been sighted games in past which sort of combined something

Hello Thomas,
I noticed that in some jeopardy programmed, there are teams, and
categories for x points. You can choose your category, as well as how
many points. If a player say, gets the question correct, they get those
points, and the player who got the correct question gets to pick another

You can get the latest version of Swamp from

and you might want to check out some of his other games as well.
Castaways remains one of my favorites and Towers of War is also a pretty
interesting game too.

Of course. That was what I was planning on doing once there is enough

Yes, but its a case of easier said than done. I've never been good with

That would depend on how many categories and questions were added to the

develops it, maintains it, the larger the database will grow. At first

I agree. Multiple choice is really the only way to do it. Basically,

Well, I guess what sets Jeopardy apart from other quiz shows is that the
rules are a bit different from your average quiz show. Instead of asking
the contestants questions they are given an answer and they are suppose
to supply the correct question. So its backwards from the normal q

Hi Bryan,
Precisely my point. A lot of people often don't pronounce certain names
or words correctly and end up spelling it wrong as a result. Confusing
Wimbledon with Wimbleton is a easy mistake to make, and the game
wouldn't be forgiving enough to take poor spelling into account.

Hi Bryan,
Really? Did you find it too easy to play, or did you think it was
challenging enough using multiple choice. Also did it ask you to press
1, 2, or 3 or A, B, C?
