If you’re wanting to spend some enjoyable hours with a group of compatriots, Trivial Pursuit<\/a> can be a good option.<\/p>\n

However, if you are not from the same culture, many questions – especially in the pink and orange categories – can become almost impossible to answer for some of the players.<\/p>\n

It would therefore be nice to have a box of international questions (either truly global, or perhaps European) to enable people with multinational families and friends to play the game.<\/p>\n

I was searching a bit, and there seems to be a so-called “Globetrotter edition<\/a>“, in which the six categories are replaced with six regions: North America,
\nLatin America, Oceania, Africa, Europe and Asia.<\/p>\n

That sounds like it would be playable by people from different backgrounds, but it changes the nature of the game a lot, and I’d still rather have an international version of “proper” Trivial Pursuit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
