I am very excited about the release of the new Handheld Edition of the classic TRIVIAL PURSUIT board game! TRIVIAL PURSUIT is now available for play on both Palm OS and Windows Mobile devices.
"This is the perfect game for PDAs and smartphones," said Handmark marketing vice president Douglas Edwards. "The demographic of the TRIVIAL PURSUIT game players matches the new users of advanced PDAs and smartphones; and the question card is a great match to the screen size and format of these devices. The new Handmark versions animate game play and board movement that is easy to follow."
"We are very pleased to be working with Handmark to develop high-quality, branded entertainment content for mobile devices," commented Jim Ware, President of Horn Abbot Ltd., the original developers of the TRIVIAL PURSUIT board game. "Millions of people currently use PDA and smartphone devices, making this a logical step for the TRIVIAL PURSUIT game to reach both a new audience and the many people who have played the game during the past twenty years."
