Game Docs

You begin the game with 1000 points. The object is to get as many points as possible in 5 questions. If you reach 10000 points after 5 questions, you will get up to 5 more bonus questions until you answer a question incorrectly. Before each question, you are given the category and then you must choose to bet 1/4, 1/2 or all of your points. To answer the question, click on the answer you want before the timer runs out. You get bonus points for how quickly you answer. There are menus to turn the timer off or on, to return to the main menu and to quit the game.
If you attain one of the top ten scores, you will be taken to the high scores screen and asked to enter your name. Hit return after entering it and you will see your score added to the list. There is a menu option to zero out the high scores.
