If you think you are interested in doing a Trivia Shell program, check bulletin 18 on the Software Creations BBS system to see what is currently in the works. Select a subject that is not being worked on, pick out 15 categorys of questions for that subject and leave a message for Dan Linton for approval on that topic. Once you get your first level of approval, do 5 questions in each category for a total of 75 questions. Submit these for review to Software Creations. Once we check to see that you are on the right track with your development you will get the go-ahead to continue on to the 1000 question mark. At completion of the 1000 questions, we will have graphics cover screen created, have your database edited and create the Full Trivia Shell program.
The reason we are doing 1000 question is as follows: Several versions of the game become available after the database is complete. 100 questions goes out in a Shareware version of the game. 300 questions is considered the Classic, 600 the deluxe and 1000 the Gold version of the game.
I hope you enjoy working on your database. It can really get hard at times to come up with hints and false choices for some of these questions, but stick to it, its really great to see a game go out with your name on it after its done. And the extras compensation it can bring can’t hurt either.”
Another thing that really makes TrivPrep – The Trivia Database Preparation Program enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to TrivPrep – The Trivia Database Preparation Program. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
