This first player rolls the Jumbo Category Die to determine which category the first question will be from. This could be one of the following: If their answer is not correct, they are out for that round. If the answer is correct, then that player wins the round. Then a question is being asked from that category and every player can yell out an answer at any time, but they can do this once. It is a game that enables all of the players to shout the answers out and that is why it is suited for parties and large groups. Skill – Complexity
