Back in the spring, myself, Mr 0tralala, Miss Nyssa1968 and Miss KB put together a weekend event – a session of fun and games for a group of chums like a weekend-long pub quiz.
One of the games I put together for this event was a version of the old TV gameshow Wipeout. Rather than leave it languishing on my hard-drive forever more, I have put it up here for anyone to have a go.
Just like the gameshow, the player must choose a grid of clues to try their luck against from a selection of cryptic topics. Then, once faced with the grid, decide how many correct answers they can see amongst the red-herrings. Picking a single wrong-answer wipes-out their accumulated score.
Obviously, here, it’s difficult to reproduce the full gameplay of the TV show but it’s possible to have a go.
So try your luck against the categories below. Click the letters in the answer-squares to make your choices:
For anyone interested in the technical details. The game was put together in Adobe Flash CS4 and using Actionscript 3.0 for the logic.
