Description from the packaging.

Computer Facts in Five is a computer simulation of Avalon Hill's best selling game of the same name. The original game is a game of knowledge pitting two or more opponents against each other- and against the clock. The computer version adds new dimensions to this game by providing extensive options for solitaire and doubles play; unique options for controlling game difficulty; unique options for party play; and special input modes for educational and family use.

Even with the many options and unique ways of modifying play, the concept of the game remains the same as in the original game and remarkably simple.

1. Five subjects are selected.
2. Associated with each subject are five letters.
3. For each subject, each player tries to name five people, places, or things that begin with the letters in question.

With the Wild Card option you have a powerful and fun option for both educational and party use. Subjects such as simple addition or subtraction can be selected to teach children mathematics or trivial questions for party games. There is no limit to the number of different subjects that can be selected.
