Just a standard quiz game and no more, apart from the gimmick of restoring the phoneline to maintain world peace by correct answers. It's not much of a game and should only be played by quiz fanatics but it's not bad downloading it onto an emulator and playing for free, just imagine paying £11.25 for this!

In this quiz game the player has to repair a hotline telephone link between the world's leaders by answering up to 20 questions, if not peace will be threatened. There are few questions and the same keep being repeated, also they aren't that hard, but obviously that depends on your knowledge skills. There's also a trap question that will always end up incorrectly no matter the choice you make.

The great thing about the game is that you can come up with your own questions and save them on tape, but that means playing against (or with) someone. Unfortunately 20 questions for the computer to sort a quiz is way too few, so you end up making news ones each time you play.
