Written by Glyn Pollington in 1990 - A Trivial Pursuits type game for the Psion Organiser II. It incorporates sound effects scoring and a timing element to make the game faster and more fun. Organised Trivia comes on a 64k Datapak and contains over 800 questions. These are grouped into Pot Luck, Science, Music, Sport, and History.
Round 1 is always Pot Luck and the player will receive up to twenty questions. Three mistakes are permitted and up to three passes throughout the game. A correct answer is awarded 10 points; a wrong answer gets nothing and a pass -5 points. If a player gets through Round 1, they get a 25 point bonus and a chance to play a “specialist subject", where the game is a bit faster and the points depend on the speed of the answer. In all events the game ends when the third incorrect answer is given.
