Rating Summary

This is a trivia game, based on the TV game show Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?, in which players answer questions from a variety of school subjects (e.g., Science, Math, English, Art, etc.). Questions range in difficulty from 1st to 5th grade, and players can rely on 5th-grade partners to help them answer questions. Out of the numerous categories and hundreds of trivia items, a small portion of answer explanations make references to violence (e.g., a king who ordered his wives to be beheaded, people killed on the Titanic, and Greek gods sent to strangle Hercules in his crib). There are also occasional references to alcohol such as "making wine." In some quiz rounds, a player can use a spit-wad ability that blocks the question on the opponent's screen.
