The humor in the game is characterized by quirky dialogue and entertaining voiceovers, appealing particularly to trivia and movie fans. While some players find the comedic material lacking at times, the nostalgic and adult-oriented humor, including hilarious insults from the commentator and amusing fake commercials, enhances the overall experience. Overall, it strikes a balance between challenging gameplay and humor, making it a worthwhile choice for those who appreciate witty trivia games.
“If you love trivia, a huge movie fan, and love quirky and funny dialogue, then this is the game for you.”
“Still, the humor and nostalgia more than make up for it, and getting questions wrong just means more opportunities for Cookie to hilariously insult me.”
“The humor, the setting, the difficulty (which can frustrate you at times since you come away saying to yourself, 'Crap! I knew that! Why didn't I choose that answer!?') even the credits are hilarious with the fake commercials. If you love quirky, fun, and challenging trivia games, don't miss this or volumes 1 (the extra large edition) and 2, volume 4 - the ride.”
