The handheld version of the console versions is along the same lines. It does feature sports-related questions as the main bulk of the game where the player answers questions in three rounds using the D-Pad to spell out answers. However, it does not feature digitized contestants, studio or the host Alex Trebek, though it does feature a photo likeness of him for intros. Instead it features a more cartoonish look without sports-themed contestants and less questions than the console versions. It does feature a two-player option allowing friends to compete head-to-head on the same Game Gear, but only allows the player to compete against one computer opponent as opposed to two as in other versions.

This approach was meant to have the emulations act true to the original versions of these games, and not carry any imperfections direct ports could have introduced.

The writing is strong throughout, and the plot is captivating enough and different enough from dime-a-dozen fantasy fodder to maintain your interest.
A shareware game, the steep $25 fee for the registered version unfortunately got you nothing other than a hintbook. The shareware version for download is already a complete game, although some puzzles wil
