•Requires 2 or more players Our all-time best-selling game is back! How much do you really know about your own country? Its history, its geography, its arts? How is your general knowledge? Surprised to learn that he knew more about the USA than Canada, a young Canadian entrepreneur invented a fun way to help Canadians learn more about their home and native land. He scoured encyclopedias, magazines, newspapers – even cereal boxes and album covers – to come up with over 2000 all-Canadian questions. Then he bought a white cargo van, painted it with red maple leaves, and drove it across the country, store to store, personally selling his games to hundreds of retailers in both small towns and big cities. He talked about his new game to every reporter and journalist he could get to listen. His antics attracted wide publicity, and the game became so popular that it spawned Junior, French, and Millennium Editions, as well as a Supplementary Question set. All Canadian Trivia sold over 100,000 copies, making it one of the best-selling independent games in Canadian history. That was then… In 2007, Outset Media introduced the highly anticipated All Canadian Trivia: Tenth Anniversary Edition. The Tenth Anniversary Edition The beautifully redesigned game board and packaging, new game play and over 1000 brand-new questions make this edition a must have for anyone who loves Canada! Players travel around the board challenging each other on 2160 questions in four categories: arts, geography, history and general knowledge. Canadian culture is full of colourful people, places, things and events. With the new Tenth Anniversary Edition of All Canadian Trivia, Canadians can challenge their friends and family to a great game, show off how much they know, and learn more about this great country.
