Picture the scene. You are with your family at a big seasonal festive party. You know. JimMas or the such. One person is loving the quiz-based game you are playing. Taking all the cubes, wedges, pizza slices or whatever you call them for themselves and loving all the questions. Even those pesky yellow ones. Who knows about science anyway? I learnt how to turn on the Bunsen Burner without my teacher noticing in my school Physics class.
The team at Shot In Dark certainly feel the same. They have a 'smarty pants' dad apparently too, and so decided to create a series of games to combat this. Simply put. A trivia-based game, with answers know one will defiantly know the answer too, but where everyone will have a good time at trying to answer.
This started with the seminal Shot in the Dark game from 2019, a Christmas edition (whatever that is) and now, their next major release, Without A Doubt. A trivia-based question game with a very simple addition. Everyone is given a 'Without A Doubt' card to play whenever they are a little more sure about the answer. This will then double their point return if they are right.
There are hundreds of questions in this deck of cards. Each one with a clear and simple structure for reading the questions or answers. As such, any player from 8 and up could play this. The questions are accessible enough for anyone to have a guess, and the format of the cards is easy enough for most eight-year-olds to read them out.
