Tom Baker’s Ultimate Sci-Fi Quiz

## Description

_Tom Baker’s Ultimate Sci-Fi Quiz_ is a family DVD game hosted by Tom Baker,
an actor who famously played _Doctor Who_ for many years.

This is a one or two player game, each player captains a space ship. The story
behind the game is that the SS Hawking a space exploration vessel, and SS Ark
a space station studying alien life, have encountered an uncharted wormhole
and has been flung across the galaxy. To get home the players must answer
twenty questions correctly.

The questions categories include Literature, Aliens & Monsters, Planets &
Worlds, Amazing Craft, Robots, Crazy Science, Earth in Peril and The Early
Years. A category can only be used once per game. Once the category has been
selected players are asked questions in turn by Tom Baker after which the
scene shifts to Amy where the player chooses from four possible answers. If
they answer correctly they move closer to Earth, if not they stay where they
are. When a question is answered incorrectly the players are NOT shown the
correct answer.
The super-massive black hole that moved us so far from home continues to have
an effect, randomly throughout the game more wormholes appear just before a
question is asked. If the player is in the lead and gets the question right
they stay in the lead, otherwise they swap position with the losing player.
Conversely if the player is losing and gets the question right swap position
with the leading player while if they get the question wrong they stay where
they are.

The game ends when a player returns to Earth or when all questions have been
asked.
