This limited edition of Apple Quest was designed in 1984 at Apple as a training tool for new Apple Sales people on the Apple // family. It is Copyright 1984 Apple Computer, Inc.
A TRIVIAL PURSUIT variation with questions that cover Hardware, Software, Marketing, and History. All cards have both the question and the answer. Comes complete with original instructions, die, and tokens in the shape of animals.
Our group at Apple designed and presented this game as part of the SWAT training in the summer of 1984. We had to come up with something interesting to get the information to the new sales force since they were all jazzed about the Macintosh and not too interested in the "other" product line. I don't remember exactly, but I'd guess less than 10 of these games were made.
A sample of the questions, this is my personal favorite!
Q. Name two reasons a home consumer would choose an Apple //c over a Macintosh:
A. Your answers must be close to these:
- The //c is half the price of a Mac.
- Kids have Apple //'s in school.
- More software is available for the Apple // than is currently available for the Mac.
- The Apple //c has color graphics capability.
The game board measures 23 x 16 .5 inches and is laminated. I didn't count the question cards but over 300, maybe more. You could almost write a book with this information. Yes, we did our best to validate the answers.
