Trivial Pursuit: Genus Edition

Players move circular pieces around a wheel-shaped board, rolling a die and choosing direction to land on colored spaces that correspond to question categories. Landing on a color prompts a trivia question; correct answers on designated “pie” spaces earn a wedge in that color, while correct answers on other spaces grant an extra roll. Players collect six differently colored wedges in their piece and then navigate the spoke toward the center; the first player to reach the center after collecting all wedges wins.
