Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to
certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in
video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions: Sit farther from the screen; use a smaller screen; play in a well-lit room; and do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued.
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.
ESRB Game Ratings
The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) ratings are designed to provide consumers, especially parents, with concise, impartial guidance about the age-appropriateness and content of computer and video games. This information can help consumers make informed purchase decisions about which games they deem suitable for their children and families.
ESRB ratings have two equal parts:
• Rating Symbols suggest age appropriateness for the game. These symbols appear on the front of virtually every game box available for retail sale or rental in the United States and Canada.
• Content Descriptors indicate elements in a game that may have triggered a particular rating and/or may be of interest or concern. The descriptors appear on the back of the box next to the rating symbol.

Scoring
Correct answers are worth up to 2,000 points. All puzzle types display a timer bar at the bottom of the screen that shrinks as time ticks away. The faster you answer, the more points you score!
roundS
Each game consists of three rounds, followed by Final Cut. Short Game rounds consist of three puzzle types per round. Long Game rounds are made up of five puzzle types per round.
Final Cut
Final Cut consists of four questions, each with a base value of 2,000 points. Your score multiplier increases with each consecutive correct answer, boosting your earning potential.
Note! Incorrect answers or not answering drops your multiplier back to x1.
Round Highlights
At the end of each round, bonus points are awarded for special
accomplishments, such as answering every question correctly or providing the fastest correct answer in that round. You can also earn bonus points for stealing an answer. This happens when another team buzzes in and then answers incorrectly, which prevents them from answering again and reopens the question to the remaining teams.
Remember, unless point deductions are turned on, you never lose points (see “Custom Play” above). You can even gain points for poor performance, like getting the most questions wrong in a row!
