Party quiz game with 10 Classification Category Booklets:

  1. War and the Times
  2. Which is Which
  3. Missing Links
  4. Around the Globe
  5. Sports and Games
  6. Radio, Theatre, Books, Music, Etc.

  10. Jack Pot Quiz

One person is selected as the Quiz Master, who will ask the questions, verify the answers, and be the banker. A player selects from one of the first nine categories above and a question number between 1-30.

After each correct answer, the player can stop or pick another question (the rules do not allow for a different category to be chosen). The first correct answer awards 1 "stage dollar" with each subsequent correct answer doubling it, up to $64 for seven correct answers. An incorrect answer at any point forfeits the money to a Jack Pot which starts at $25.

After all players have had an opportunity to answer questions, the Quiz Master selects a question from booklet #10 for the Jack Pot, after which the players have 60 seconds to write down the correct answer. The Jack Pot is split between all players who have written the correct answer; the rules do not state what to do if the Jack Pot is not won.

At least two editions were released (First Series and Second Series). The gameplay is largely similar to Take It or Leave It, released in 1942, the only major difference being the usage of quiz booklets in this game versus a spinner in that one.
