ABSTRACT:
A game using a standard reference work, such as a set of encyclopedias, as one of the game components. A game board displays a path of travel along which the players each move a marker, with progress along the path being determined partly by the player's success in correctly answering questions within the prescribed time, and partly by the roll of a single die. There is a set of question cards, each of which asks for information obtainable from the encyclopedia; a timer to limit the period of each person's turn; and a set of answer cards to determine the correctness of the information obtained.
