Wow, what a strange concept. Was it aimed at kids I wonder, like young kids? My wife and I played it last night and I was stunned that anyone in their right mind thought this board game would translate well as a multi-player video game. That is all.
 
Yeah, no kidding. Though I have to admit that I always carry it with me if I have any kind of portable emulator...

I guess it would be OK as a single player game, but when you throw another adult into the mix, you almost feel bad being the first one to hit your button, as the other person just sits there while you spell your guess out? Even describing the game in text is tedius.

Hahaha. I never thought about that as I've never played 2 player :)
 
I played that game so much when I was younger I knew what every answer was just by the dot pattern. I actually played it a while back with the wife and I could still remember a few of the patterns. Definitely a weird game for the NES, but no where near the bottom of the barrel.
