Tic Tac Trivia (6221-23, U5-0C, 07/07/86)

Tic Tac Trivia is a two-player quiz game released in 1985 by Merit. Two players compete head-to-head, answering questions presented on screen to mark their spaces on a shared grid resembling a Tic-Tac-Toe board. Correct answers allow a player to claim a space; the first to achieve three in a row – horizontally, vertically, or diagonally – wins the round. The game utilizes a Zilog Z80 processor and a General Instrument AY8910 sound chip for its audio. Gameplay involves reacting quickly to questions displayed on the screen and pressing buttons to select an answer. Each player has a set of buttons to choose from, allowing them to respond in real-time against their opponent. The game is entirely presented with questions in English. The simple premise combined with competitive gameplay makes Tic Tac Trivia an accessible and engaging experience for two players seeking a quick trivia challenge.
