SPINNER
BEFORE STARTING:
Decide what length of game you wish to play.
fast play game: The winning player is the first player to advance
from their sta rt city to the corresponding finish city.
regular play game: The winning player must advance from their start
city to their finish city, back to their start city, and then back again to the
corresponding finish cit y.
LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY:
Before starting the game, each player (or team) must select their
desired level of difficulty.
Younger players should play the “Junior” level. They will be asked
questions from the side of the card with three questions.
Older players should play the “Expert” level. They will be asked
questions from the side of the card with four questions.
Trivia masters should play the “Genius” level. They will also be asked
questions from the side of the card with four questions, but will need
to answer two questions correctly to move forward on the game board.
TO START:
Insert the spinner into the game board.
Each player (or team) must select a game pawn.
Place the game pawns on their matching “start” cities.
For example, the red pawn would start in Snug Harbour.
Decide who goes first. We recommend starting with the youngest player.
Play moves clockwise around the table.
HOW TO PLAY:
Player 1 flicks the spinner to determine which question will be asked.
Players at the “Junior” level use the inside ring to determine which category
they will be asked (geography, history, general). Players at the “Expert”
or “Genius” levels use the outside ring to determine which category they will
be asked (ge o g r aphy, history, arts, general).
The player to the left reads the question aloud for Player 1, using the card
from the front of the deck, and making sure the correct side of the card is
used (see section regarding LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY).

If Player 1 answers correctly, they move their game pawn forward to the
next city along the corresponding colored line. For example, the player
starting in Snug Harbour would move to Nain. However, if Player 1 answers
incorrectly, they do not move their game pawn forward.
The above rule applies to players at both the “Junior” and “Expert” levels.
If a player has opted to play the “Genius” level, after answering the first
question correctly, they must spin again to get a second question to answer
before they can advance.
Regardless if the question was answered correctly or not, play moves
clockwise to the next player. This means that players do NOT get a second
turn, even if they answer their question correctly.
WINNING THE GAME:
The winning player is the first player to advance from their start city to
the corresponding finish cit y.
