Favorite games requiring knowledge of trivia

[mcolakis]

The Monopoly discussion got me thinking about this. I am faculty advisor to the Trivia and Knowledge Club at my school, and I'm searching for ideas on games that require knowledge of trivia. There's the online Jeopardy and Trivial Pursuit, of course, and I've come across a few others: Cash Cab, Can You Name Five, for example. What else is out there that you think bright high schoolers would enjoy? They can be board games or online.

I like the online version of the Only Connect TV programme - http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00lskhg/features/quiz (hopefully the BBC allow Americans on their site).

You Don't Know Jack! is fantastic. I think it's just on XBox, Steam, and iGizmo though.

IIRC, You Don't Know Jack! isn't really safe for school use though, is it?

Sporcle has tons of trivia games in all different categories.

I like the IMDb trivia game for iOS. There is also Buzztime trivia. We have a lot of kids that play it at our location.

Ditto for Sporcle- I find myself there frequently and there's plenty for just about everyone. Some days are slow but never boring.

You can also create your own quizzes on there.

there is also FunTrivia. Set up a daily quiz for your club- random categories but sometimes can get repeated. Not a bad one but short. (only 10 questions a day). I think you can join public games as well as having the private group.

Fun Trivia has thousands upon thousands of quizzes, and you can also create your own.
