QUIZLAND
CUSTOM QUESTIONS (NEW FROM 1.2.4) From version 1.2.4 you can customize yourself the questions in the game. Simply go in the data subfolder in the game installation directory and edit the files eng.ini (english language questions), ita.ini (italian language questions) and spanish.ini (spanish language questions). Mac users: to access those files you need to look inside the Quizland bundle. Rightclick or control-click on the Quizland application icon and then choose "show package contents" and in Contents->Resources you'll find the data subdirectory. The first value counts the questions and the puzzle questions present in the file: [GENERAL] MaxQuestions=1345 MaxPuzzles=107 So remember that if you add 10 questions ant 5 puzzles, the values will need to be updated to: [GENERAL] MaxQuestions=1355 MaxPuzzles=112 Otherwise you could experience problems playing the game. The questions use the following format: [1] ID=E-St Text=Who was "Polifemo"? Answer1=Centaur Answer2=Giant Answer3=Cyclops Answer4=Ork Solution=3 Photo=0 The first number in bracket is question number, don't change it. Then ID field identifies the kind of question, the first letter stands for E=EASY, M=MEDIUM, H=HARD then is specified the argument and can be: -Lett (literature) -Sci (science) -St (history) -Sp (sport) -Geo (geography) -Att (various) The Text is the question itself. The Answer1,Answer2 etc are the 4 possible answers, and the Solution number points to the correct answer (from 1 to 4). The field Photo if has a value, loads the corrisponding image in the folder "photos". So if you want you can even add more photos to the game, for example you could add lincoln.jpg to the photo directory and then write Photo=lincoln (don't add .jpg or .png, the game will load the file automatically). If you use ID=Puzzle instead, it means that is a question to be played like a puzzle (every 5 normal questions). You need to put a photo to make a puzzle questions. HOW TO PLAY Select "Start New Game" from the main menu, then select the number of players (in the demo you can play only single player games) and then choose your skill. The "Skill" is your favorite subject or area of expertise. Whenever you correctly answer a question that falls into your selected skill, you'll receive double points for it. But be careful, if you answer incorrectly you lose 1000 points! The game then starts and you'll see a question with four answers. You must click on the correct answer to go on. For every mistake you make, you will lose one life (you start with three lives). If you reach zero lives, the game is over. The game is divided into three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium and Hard. After 15 questions you go on to the next level where the difficulty will increase. There's a "Jolly" button, though, to help you; Clicking on it will erase two wrong answers, leaving you with a 50% probability of picking the correct answer. Finally, after every 5 questions there is a puzzle question. The puzzle questions involve identifying the subject associated with a picture. The demo version lets you play only the easy questions.
