5 x 5 is a proprietary game invented by Bill Schantz. Similar to Jeopardy in that individual players are buzzing in to answer clues on a grid in columns of increasing difficulty, this has been a fan favorite in previous years. Unlike Jeopardy, five players compete at a time, and the Final Round asks a question with multiple answers in a “Complete the List” style. Every entrant will play at least 3 games, with the highest scoring player advancing to the semis and final round on Sunday.
Suitable for Novices? Absolutely! Like Jeopardy, the clues range in difficulty, so a good portion of the questions will be accessible to all. Additionally, there will be some sessions of 5 x 5 on Sunday that will be specifically designated for first time players.
