Stuff for Christmas


I got this from an account exec named Jacalyn Lee, and I thought it was interesting enough to post for game fans.

Every year, it seems that all kids want are games that further isolate them from their parents. With that being said, The b EQUAL Company has created a line of family-friendly trivia DVD games that incorporate interactive technology to promote family time.

What sets them apart from other gaming companies is that they have a technology called Dynamic Leveling that automatically and continuously changes the difficultly level of questions for each player – so a 6 year old could literally play against a 60 year old on the same playing ground – so dad or grandma aren’t bored and kids don’t feel like it’s impossible to fairly win a game. All the games are designed for players age 6 to 106.

New b EQUAL Trivia DVD games launched this October include:
