After many successful
SceneIt? trivia game releases, including the DVD-and-board-game combos for
the TV edition, the HBO expansion pack, the Warner Brothers TV 50th Edition and most recently
the Friends edition, the folks at Screen Life are making some inroads into DVD games that branch out from the trivia challenges that gave them their start. One of these is an upcoming game called
American Idol All-Star Challenge, a game that lets YOU play the role of an
Idol hopeful as you audition, go to Hollywood, and go to the finals...all from the comfort of your own home!
This game's DVD is filled with lots of clips from the four completed seasons of the program. You must, of course, supply your own TV, DVD player and remote control...the game should come with everything else you need (see a picture and list of contents at the bottom of this story). Screen Life's
web page for this game shows that they will ship this starting on
March 30th, at a $34.95 SRP. The title is
listed at Amazon (although they presently show it as "not available" instead of as a pre-order). Here's how Screen Life's web page describes it:
Relive the excitement with all the stars, real clips and challenges from America's hottest TV show!
