My name is Ryan Rider also known as Brakker-Z. I am very good at Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo, Game Gear, Game Boy, Game Boy Color and some Playstation games. I am also good at You Don`t Know Jack, the best computer game of all time! Since this is my first ever FAQ, I am writing about the newest game in this series, You Don`t Know Volume 7: 5th Dimentia! Well I hope you like it, because I worked very hard on it, Ryan Rider Whatever, let`s get on with the FAQ page... 2. Updates ========== 01-06-01-Version 1.1 - Finished and sent in the FAQ(finally) 02-11-01-Version 1.2 - Corrected some spelling errors and changed a part. 3. Required System Configurations ================================== Pentium-Class processor, 200 MHz or faster Windows 95/98/00 64 MB RAM 275MB HD Space 8x CD-ROM drive or faster 640 x 480 Screen Size 16-bit Color Mouse and Keyboard 56K Modem or faster connection to the internet(for online play only) 4. Introduction ================ You can play You Don`t Know Volume 7: 5th Dimentia at home or over a network. If you`re playing You Don`t Know Volume 7: 5th Dimentia at home, one to three players can cozy up around the keyboard. If you`re playing across a network, you can take on one or two online opponents. Pre-arrange to meet friends online or select a random game to meet strangers. Heck, meet strange friends, who cares? Just remember, if you pre-arrange a game with friends, it`s easier if you all use the same room name. 5. Starting The Game ====================== When the game starts, listen to the host`s instructions and decide whether you want to play offline or online. Once you`re signed in, it`s off to choose an alter-ego face you`ll be using as your icon during the game. To play You Don`t Know 5th Dimentia you`ve got to have a quick wit and quicker fingers. When you`re playing at home, each player is assigned a buzzer: Q, B or P. Buzz in when you think you know the answer. The first player to buzz in gets first crack at the question. Get the question right and you`ll win some cash. Answer it wrong and you`ll lose some. If you`re playing online, you don`t need a buzzer. Just hit the number that corresponds to the multiple-choice(see number 5) answer that you want to pick. If the question isn`t multiple-choice, just press your spacebar to buzz in. 6. Multiple-Choice Questions ============================ These are the most common questions asked. Here is an example of a Multiple-choice question(In the game they are much harder): Which of these is not a character on the simpsons? 1.Homer 2.Marge 3.Lisa 4.Kris If you think you know the answer to the question, be the first to buzz in. And remember, Einstein: if you`re playing at home, buzz in first with your assigned Q, B or P key, then choose your answer by pressing the 1,2,3 or 4 key. If you`re playing over a network, there`s no need to buzz in, just hit 1,2,3 or 4. If you don`t know the answer to the question, then screw your neighbor(see number 13)! But remember, only 2 screws per game(offline) and only 1 screw per game(online. 7. Fill-In-The-Blank Question ============================ Crank up your cranium for the Fill-In-The-Blank Question. A Fill-In-The-Blank Question does not have any answers to choose from-to answer, buzz in, write the answer and hit the Enter/Return key. Here`s an example: What word completes this phrase? "Jack and Jill went up the _______." If you know the answer, buzz in and type hill. And remember to hit the Enter/Return key when you`re done typing. Type carefully, if you make a typos, you won`t get the cash. Oh ya, and in the real game Fill-In-The-Blank Questions are actually challenging. 8. The Gibberish Question ========================= Think you`ve heard it all? Gibberish Questions are rhyming puzzles which start at high value and go down in value every second and a half until someone buzzes in to try and win the cash that is left. When a Gibberish Question starts, listen closely to the Gibberish phrase and try to think of a quote,saying, lyric, title or phrase that bit rhymes with. If If you can`t think of the answer right away, listen for some clues from the host. If you think you know what the Gibberish phrase rhymes with, buzz in, type in the answer and then hit the Enter/Return key. For example, with what title does this phrase rhyme with? Stew won`t grow back. Or in other words: You Don`t Know Jack 9. The Anagram Question ======================= Do you have a certain flair for rearranging your furniture? Well, Anagrams ask you to take the letters of a given term or phrase and use them to form a completely new one. For example, what do the letters of this scrambled holiday Anagram spell? DESTINE VAN LAY Just move around the "v" here and the "y" there and presto! VALENTINE`S DAY 10.The DisOrDat Question ======================== If you stumble upon a DisOrDat, you`ll take control of the game for a round of action that could net you some real cash-or cost you a bundle. DisOrDats are matching questions that require the player to categorize each of seven different clues. For example the host might say: OKAY, I`M GOING TO SHOUT OUT SEVEN ITEMS, AND FOR EACH ONE, I WANT YOU TO TELL ME IF IT`S THE NAME OF AN APPETIZER OR A BACTERIAL INFECTION. IF IT`S A YUMMY APPETIZER, PRESS "1". IF IT`S A GROSS BACTERIAL INFECTION, PRESS "2". 1. Beggar`s purse 2. Carbuncle 3. Escargot 4. Gado Gado 5. Foot Roll 6. Spanakopita 7. Impetigo For each of the seven clues, you get cash for a correct match and lose cash for a wrong answer. You also lose cash for each unanswered question. 11. The Bug Out Question ======================== Can you handle your swatter with finesse or will you be eaten alive? The Bug Out Question will help you find out. If you`re quick and smart, you can make some big cash. If you`re slow and stupid, you might reach for some calamine lotion. The object of The Bug Out Question is to identify items that do not belong in a specified group. For example: THE HOST MIGHT SAY: "The seven deadly sins! Buzz in when you see one that`s not!" A series of animated bugs will crawl around onscreen and shout out the name of various sins. If it is not the name of a deadly sin, hit your buzzer and smash that bug! Each Bug Out Question has seven levels, each worth a different amount. Things get pretty interesting when more than one player is competing because players take money directly from each others winnings. Be smart....players are only allowed to buzz in once per level, so don`t get bitten. 12. The Jack Attack =================== The Jack Attack is the last question of every game. The Jack Attack can make or break the game-so get set to earn big bucks or lose your shirt. The Jack Attack is an association question. Once you`re given a clue, you`ve got to find the link or association between two phrases or words. Piece of cake, right? That`s what the baker thought... In "The Jack Attack", one phrase zooms out from the center of the screen as potential matches fly by. Nothing stays on the screen very long, so if you see a match, buzz in right away! For example, if your Jack Attack clue is Rhymes with "Yuck", and you see dollar zoom out from the center of the screen, wait until the word buck appears and buzz in immediately to get the money. Next, if Look Out! zooms onscreen, wait until duck appears and then buzz in. 13. "Don`t Be A Wimp!" ====================== If you`re way ahead of the player or players, the audience might yell "Don`t Be A Wimp!" and you will have to answer the question. That only aplies to Multiple choice questions though. 14. Screwing Your Neighbor ========================== If you don`t know the answer to a question, don`t get mad.... Screw Your Neighbor! Screw Your Neighbor is an option that forces another player to answer the question. You can Screw Your Neighbor only during Multiple-Choice Questions. To Screw your neighbor, be the first to buzz in, press the S key and then pick a player to screw by pressing the players number: 1, 2, or 3. But remeber these two things, you only get one screw per game and if the person you`ve screwed gets the answers right the you lose money! 15. Special Stuff For Online Play Only ====================================== When playing online, there`s a chat feature so you can razz you`re opponents during the game. Just about any time that your player icon is onscreen, you can chat. Whenever you have something to say hit the TAB key. Type out a quick jab, then hit Enter/Return to send your message. Or if you`re too busy to write, hit a function key to send a quick pre-written audio message: - F1: "Very Funny!" - F2: "I`m the best!" - F3: "Lucky guess!" - F4: "You stink!" Chat alot! But be warned: that hottie that you`re chatting up is probably a cop... LOL :^) 16. Game Options Screen ======================= Press the ESC key ay any time during You Don`t Know Jack to access the game options screen. Simply press a key to make your choice. You can also the raise or lower the volume with the UP or DOWN keys. At the end of the game, press the S key to play another game of You Don`t Know Jack 5th Dimentia with or same players or press N to play the game with new players. Press Q to quit the game, or H to see the high scoreboard. 17. Conclusion ============== I hope this FAQ came in handy and you liked it!
