A QUESTION OF SPORT – Commodore 64 (1988) | Elite's Classic Sports Quiz Show Game

A Question of Sport is a 1988 sports trivia game developed by Elite Systems for the Commodore 64, based on the popular BBC quiz show of the same name. Players form teams to answer a variety of sports-related questions across six distinct rounds, including Picture Board, Mystery Personality, Home or Away, What Happened Next?, Quickfire, and a final Picture Board. Each team consists of three members, with players selecting their teammates from a pool of 12 personalities, each specialising in a different sport.

The game features digitized representations of the team members and utilizes a point-and-click interface for selecting answers. While the C64 version lacks the digitized faces found in the 16-bit editions, it retains the core gameplay elements and offers both single-player and two-player modes. Players can choose their specialty sport from a selection of ten options, adding a layer of strategy to the game.

Critically, A Question of Sport received mixed reviews. Publications like The Games Machine rated it 40%, citing limited appeal beyond sports enthusiasts. However, Zzap!64 gave the Encore re-release a 65% score, appreciating its multiplayer fun and quiz show atmosphere. The game's replayability is enhanced by five question blocks, allowing players to load new sets of questions to extend gameplay.

Overall, A Question of Sport stands as a nostalgic piece of gaming history, offering a unique blend of sports trivia and interactive gameplay that appeals to fans of quiz shows and retro gaming alike.
