Gotta Catch 'Em All: The "pie" pieces, earned from correct answers on the "pie" spaces located at the end of each outward track.Extra Turn: The grey "Roll Again" spaces.Expansion Pack: Plenty to choose from, featuring categories of different themes, official and not-so-much.These usually if not always come with guide cards listing said categories and their corresponding colors. Color-Coded for Your Convenience: The game's six categories, which themselves depend on the card set used.note Interestingly, there was the option to turn off the questions and just watch the cartoons, which ended up making the cartoons an In Name Only Adaptation of the game. The game had 12 "episodes", all of which were essentially 11-minute cartoons with some questions interspersed throughout. Animated Adaptation: In the late 2000s, there was a short-lived version of the game titled Trivial Pursuit: DVD for Kids, which was a Flash-animated DVD version of game that was targeted at kids.This board game includes examples of the following tropes: A correct answer wins the game otherwise, rinse and repeat. After collecting all six colors, the player must journey to the center of the board for a final question in a category chosen by the opponents. Because of their shape, the wedges are often referred to as 'pieces of cheese' or 'pie pieces'. The rules to this game are almost always irrelevant in terms of its use on television, but for what it's worth, the object is to collect six different colored wedges, each color corresponding to a different general interest category, and put them into the player's game piece, a wheel. The irony will not be lost on those who realize that the game's title is a pun on the old expression "trivial pursuits" i.e, pointless adventures that never accomplish anything. In shorthand, while many board games are treated as luck-based missions for which the winner is of little ultimate consequence, Trivial Pursuit will be a matter of Serious Business.
The quintessential board game used in television to indicate, first, a test of skills among characters to see which one is the smartest, and second, an excuse for hilarious bickering as players argue over whether someone is winning because he's actually smarter or because he's getting ludicrously easy questions.
