Some restaurants offer a trivia game system called NTN Buzztime Trivia. It has been around for years and is free to play. Usually you just ask your server for a controller, type in a user name and play along. A series of general trivia questions are asked, each with five possible answers. Your score depends on how fast you answer the question. As time ticks down until the answer is revealed, clues are given that eliminate some of the wrong answers.

This fun restaurant trivia game network is now a fun card game. There are four Buzztime Trivia decks, each featuring a different theme. The NTN Buzztime TV Trivia offers 200 questions about television throughout the years. The card game can be played individually, with other players, or in groups.

Each card has two TV trivia questions printed on it. The question may deal with sitcom families or soap stars. The back of the card has the answer to the two questions. You can test your trivia knowledge during your morning commute or waiting for a meeting to start. The cards are standard playing card size, so it's easy to take them along anywhere.

When playing as a team, you play 3 rounds of trivia. Each round consists of 5 questions. After the three rounds, ask one final question where players get to wager the points they've already accumulated for a chance to double them. The team with the most points wins the game. When playing as teams, it is customary to give a little more time for answers so the group can come to a consensus.

To add difficulty to the game, leave off the multiple choice answers. The card game also comes with 8 brain buster questions. The brain buster questions are harder and might be used in a tie breaker situation or for a final round question.

For more fun, mix the trivia questions from all four Buzztime decks. Play each round of team play with a different themed Buzztime deck. Buzztime is a simple card game that brings some of the great questions of the restaurant trivia game to your living room.
