Bar Games: A Guide to Playing NTN and MEGATOUCH at Your ... (ISBN 0942257375)

Categories:


Useless and unentertaining I'm afraid:
Where do I begin? The typeface is enormous, meaning there are very few words per page -- thus less content. Many of the pages have whacky clipart taking up a good 50% -- again less content. You then get to the content and find errors galore. Reading this book could actually harm your scores! The final mark against is in the writing style. It's very chummy and bad-jokey -- I guess that combined with the whacky typeface it's supposed to be friendly rather than dorky. Dear Author and Editors: We play bar trivia. We sit and shout out flavours of quarks, and know what a Wagner Tuba is. We don't want to be patronized. "Patronized" means "talking down to someone". ;) If you're really interested in boning up on some trivia, figure out what your weaknesses are and pick up some books. I was very weak in history, so I bought the excellent Time-Life Almanac of History. One book didn't make me a history whiz, but it helped me sort out all those ancient civilizations and places. If you just want general knowledge stuff, the Uncle John's Bathroom Readers are EXCELLENT troves of trivia.


Great Trivia:
This book is great. Not only does it give tips on NTN and Megatouch but it has all the Trivia you need. My daughter loves the section on US Presidents. Its a great gift for all ages. Even if you don't play Bar Games you will enjoy this book. Test yourself and your friends.


Entertaining and Informative:
BAR GAMES , a guide to playing NTN and Megatouch, contains many pages of entertaining trivia to aid the player in achieving a high score when playing NTN trivia or Megatouch. Before buying , look at page 32 , listing the wives of Henry VIII. Witty and informational! Or page 24, about US Presidents and Mrs. JK Polk's rule on drinking in the White House. BAR GAMES is a very entertaining book.


BAR GAMES:
I started playing NTN a year ago at a new Damon's restaurant here. It is really a lot of fun, and educational as well. A friend gave me this book, BAR GAMES, as a holiday gift. What a great read. History, Presidents, painters, etc. I got a few more correct answers that I usually do , thanks to the book. My teenage daughter is starting to read it, as well. She will be an expert on painters before you know it.


A entertaining book !:
Whether you are looking for a breezy bed time book or a serious trivia read, Bar Games entertains the reader with its funny graphics, trivia lists and a question on every page. I learned more about the offensive lineman of politics, the Vice Presidents of the United States, from Bar Games than I did in twelve years of school. For the serious NTN trivia player, studying the section about British royalty in BAR GAMES will enable you to answer these frequently asked questions quickly.
