TRIVIAL PURSUIT ADDENDUM
These are some general comments on the game, as well as some obscure
problems which may arise. Hopefully you won't need to use it, but isn't
it nice to know it's here?
GENERAL COMMENTS
Trivial Pursuit is bigger than it looks; this explains why it takes so
long to load off of a floppy disk. For the sake of your sanity, you should
either install it to your hard drive, or get in the habit of going to the
refrigerator while the game is starting; while the latter approach works,
it may cause you to put on a few pounds.
The computer opponents are geared to specific areas of expertise. Thus
you will find Deke to be very good in sports, but weak in other areas.
Similar attributes apply to the others, with the exception of Arndt, who
is truly ignorant, and Joe Average, who is well-rounded.
The question files are read all the way through before repeating. This
was intentional, since it will take many hours of gameplay to get repeats,
and it was felt that it was better than getting repeats on the second or
third playing of the game. Note, however, that if you turn off the computer
in the middle of a game, the pointer file will not be updated, and you will
go through the same questions you previously answered. ALWAYS EXIT THE GAME
USING THE QUIT ON THE MENU PAGE!
We hope you enjoy many hours of TRIVAL PURSUIT!
