This a game about knowledge. You have to answer questions about TV, movies, sports, nature, technology, politics and so on from things that happened from 1900 to 2000. Every player has some chips. When he uses the chips and answers the next question right he gets double the points. There is a special die. On this die is a Q besides the normal numbers. If you roll the q you do not need to answer the question.
