Game Overview

GameTek released Jeopardy! 25th Anniversary Edition for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1990, a time when quiz show games were a reliable, if unspectacular, part of the console's library. It was a straightforward adaptation, aiming to capture the core experience of the television program without much in the way of graphical flourish or technical ambition.

You control a cursor to select dollar amounts from the familiar game board, then type out your responses on a keyboard interface using the D-pad. The main objective is to outscore two computer opponents by providing correct questions to the revealed answers. Signature mechanics include the strict spelling enforcement, which often penalizes even minor typos, and the final wager system in Double Jeopardy and Final Jeopardy rounds. The pacing is methodical, and the difficulty is notoriously high, partly due to the cumbersome input method and the AI's broad knowledge base. It feels like a genuine test of recall and patience, where a single misplaced letter can cost you the game.
