Engaging for kids and adults alike, the Things You Ought to Know series strikes the right chord between learning and fun! With fun facts about board games such as Pokemon; outdoor games like Freeze Tag and video games like World of Warcraft, Things You Ought to Know - Game Time will show you that while games are a fun way to pass time, there's also a lot to learn from them. Find out where these games originated as well as their rules and strategies. This book is replete with many fascinating facts such as: ¿ The longest recorded Monopoly game lasted more than 70 days. ¿ A losing player at the World Scrabble Championship once accused his opponent of pocketing a G and demanded that officials strip-search him. ¿ The Joker didn't actually get introduced into the standard deck until the late 19th century. ¿ Virtual Battlespace is used by the US Army for its training purposes. Compiled by noted academician Terry O' Brien, this is a must-read for trivia and quiz buffs.
