 Meritless GarbageDec 27, 2008
I bought this for my sister and brother-in-law; it was a terrible gift. It was hardly like the show. It wasn't fun. The instructions were convoluted and unclear. The rules were stupid. The questions were often poorly worded or too open-ended for a single answer. SOME OF THE QUESTIONS WERE IN THE WRONG CATEGORIES. There weren't very many questions. There was no way to walk away early and keep say 500,000 dollars, and if you lost you didn't get 25,000 as long as you'd made it that far, like in the show. This combined with the fact that one person goes at a time makes it barely a competition at all.
There is no reason why this game should cost more than 5 dollars. Hasbro can't have put much thought or effort into making it. They are simply selling a piece of junk to suckers like me by using the name of a popular game show.
 Excellent for all ages and fun besidesApr 06, 2008
This is a perfect family game or one to play with your grandchildren. It is surprising how much we forget over the years and how much the younger generation reallly knows.

 Questions Portions - Great Design & Great Fun, Rest Makes No SenseFeb 04, 2008
The TV show is fun for the whole family and the questions portion of the game is great fun - it's rare to find a game that both a 4-year old, an 8-year old and adults can all enjoy - since they did a real nice job of dividing out the questions by age group and it's hilarious for adults to try to remember what a denominator is :-)
Of course, as a board game, you cannot replicate a panel of kids as your "help" buddies but the way they came up with a substitute gmaeplay makes very little sense. They should have kept the game nice and simple instead of trying to re-invent the TV experience and failing. So, like most people, I think you'll invent new rules for your family - it would be pointless & complicated to explain how they want you to play this game but again, you can skirt around and stick to the questions and just hand out the money prizes.
The questions are divided by grade group and then by color and the questions are great. They are all a good test of knowledge from ages 4-10 but it is for kids who like retaining knowledge and um, smart - because if they don't love reading, studying, math, history, geography, etc ... this is not really that easy of a game as they have to pull out paper and do math problems and spell and so forth but smart kids will love it as they get to show off so know the kids who you are buying this for ...
And it's fun for families as there are definitely things that your 3rd grader will have just learned but you cannot remember anymore :-)
But you will have to make up your own gameplay rules as the design of the game itself makes very little sense or rather, it's way more complicated than it has to be when they could've just simply substituted moving pieces up & down a row or something to indicate progress in the game ... so, questions - smart, and concept - great. As a gameboard, poorly thought out but you can easily make your own family rules ... and you will rapidly run out of question/answer cards though - hope they add new answer packs quickly.
A great family game and fun play for smart kids.
Kids smarter than game??Jan 20, 2008
I bought this for my grandkids and they felt they were smarter than the questions being asked in the game. Just a little disappointed.

 Great....if you only want one person to have a turn!Jan 19, 2008
The rules for this game are ridiculous. As mentioned in another review, you really need to make up your own rules in order to make this a game for everyone to enjoy. We bought this as a family game, but the questions are just too simple for adults. We have played twice by the traditional rules; both times it was easy to reach the million dollar question without the other parent/sibling team getting a chance to go. Very disappointing for kids! I gave this a two-star rating because there is a lot of new trivia that the kids can learn from the question cards. I wouldn't recommend this toy unless it's offered at a significant discount off the retail price.
