By correctly answering questions be the first player to fill all 6 spaces on your scoring wheel with different coloured wedges. Return to the centre of the board and correctly answer a deciding question from a category chosen by the other players. Categories are the same as the original game;
- geography
- entertainment
- history
- art and literature
- science and nature
- sports and leisure

When you land on a wedge shortcut, move directly to the matching colour wedge space. Answer the question correctly and be awarded a slice of cake to insert into your playing token.

The game board is more colourful than the original, with extra rules and variations on play.
House Rules; Agree a time limit to answer questions. Decide how accurate the answers should be. You may wish to use different rules for younger players.
Short Game; Win a colour wedge for your first correct answer for that colour.
Winning Streak; Get another roll of the dice with every correct answer. You could win the game in one play on the first round! Any player who hasn't played by then has a chance to repeat your play. If this happens, the game is tied.

This is a master game and is a complete stand alone game but can be expanded with additional question packs.
Join with other master sets for combined questions. The code card has a ready reference to colour codes for other categories across a range of master sets;
- original genus edition, dark blue
- baby boomer edition, red
- family edition, older players dark blue/turquoise, younger players yellow/cream
- young players edition, light blue
