One thing to note that on the bonus questions, unlike with a live host, the system is more rigid with exact spelling or phrasing and may kick it back as a wrong answer when it is not. We’re still working on the logic, but since it’s not being scored for points, we’ll have to live with that for now.
As always, have fun! Do you want to get notified of new games to play when they are added to the list? Just enter your email address below and that will happen.
