Trivial Pursuit

March 17th 2008 10:22
Trivial Pursuit is a board game where progress is determined by a player's ability to answer general knowledge, and popular culture questions. The game was created in 1979 by Scott Abbott, a sports editor for the Canadian Press, and Chris Haney, of Welland, Ontario, a photo editor for the Montreal Gazette. After finding pieces of their Scrabble game missing, they decided to create their own game. With the help of John Haney and Ed Werner, they completed development of the game, which was released in 1982.

As of 2004, nearly 88 million games had been sold in 26 countries and 17 languages. Northern Plastics of Elroy, Wisconsin produced 30 million games between 1983 and 1985.


Dozens of question sets have been released for the game. The question cards are organized into themes; for instance, in the standard "Genus" question set, questions in green deal with "science and nature". Some question sets have been designed for younger players and others for a specific time period such as the 90s.
