Good adaptation of the board game

Often board games with trivia answers don't seem to translate well to video game format. They have done a decent job with this one however in making an adaptation of the original. In particular the facts and friends and clear the board modes are welcome changes from the original play mode and allow much quicker games to be played.
However, some of the questions had answers that seemed to be a bit subjective and in a normal person to person game some leeway would be taken. Also some of the map questions zoomed into a level with no clear defining boarders and made it somewhat difficult to distinguish exact location.
As far as the trophies go, they are quite tough to get 100% without cheating, since they require you to never make a mistake in some situations.
All said, if you want a game to play with your family or friends, this is a good choice. Really the biggest down side of this game is you will get tired of it very quickly. In fact it took longer to get it in the mail than it did for us to wear it out and send it back.
