Linkee
This leads to some interesting tactical decisions. Do you wait to hear all four questions to work out the connection, or do you take a stab after two or three questions in the hope of guessing the link before the other players? You can only make one guess - if you’re wrong, you might help an opponent solve the link. The questions cover a broad range of topics, from sports to pop culture and history, meaning it should cater to most players. It’s a great game for family gatherings.
Each card in Linkee consists of four questions, with one link connecting the answers. The Beatles, for example, would be the link if the responses were John, Paul, George, and Ringo. Whoever correctly guesses the link wins the card, which has a letter on it. The player who collects the most cards that spell "Linkee" first wins the game.
Linkee does an excellent job of fixing Trivial Pursuit's flaws. To begin, everyone (excluding the person reading the question) participates in each round. Second, it balances player abilities; because you don't need all four answers to solve the link, your group's trivia expert isn't guaranteed to win.
