The Answer That! The Big Quiz Book contains hundreds of questions neatly categorized into 50 rounds. Instead of the traditional and very broad subjects of ‘film’, ‘sport’ or ‘music’ this quiz book features more specific topics such as ‘Bond Films’, ‘The Olympics’, ‘Music of the 1990s’, ‘TV Sitcoms’, ‘The Human Body’, ‘Landmarks’ and ‘Shakespeare’. There are also some unusual and quirky topics such as ‘Robots’, ‘Board Games’ and ‘Famous Australians’.
In this Kindle edition, the answers for each quiz are on the subsequent page making it easy to switch back and forth between the questions and answers if you want to hold a quiz with a group, but ensuring they’re separate enough if you want to test yourself without accidentally seeing the answers.
Here are a few sample questions from the book:
Music of the 1990s: “All right, stop. Collaborate and listen” are the opening lyrics to which early 1990s rap song?
