MGA Entertainment announces the launch of the Jeopardy! DVD Home Game System. Coinciding with the start of the 24th TV season of Jeopardy!, the DVD game system gives players the opportunity to put their knowledge to the ultimate test. Hosted by the show's very own Alex Trebek, the Jeopardy! DVD game system uses exclusive interactive technology to recreate the live experience of America's Favorite Quiz Show . Up to three players compete in 20 original "episodes" and answer over 1200 challenging questions - all read by Alex Trebek. Wireless buzzers allow players to navigate an interactive game board and respond to clues that appear on the TV screen.

Jeopardy!, Sony Pictures Consumer Products and MGA Entertainment worked together throughout the year-long production to ensure that the Jeopardy! fan was considered in each and every element of the game. In addition to Alex hosting, some of these elements include digitally recreating the set, players using individual buzzers and the voice of Johnny Gilbert introducing the game. Many categories also feature video clues by the fan-favorite "Clue Crew" - a first for a Jeopardy! home game.

With real-time scoring and the chance to wager on Daily Doubles and Final Jeopardy!, the Jeopardy! DVD game is the next best thing to being an actual contestant on the show.

The Jeopardy! DVD Home Game System comes with exclusive ActivTap technology, an IR set-top game base, DVD control wire, AV cable and 3 wireless buzzers for 1-3 players. It comes pre-loaded with 20 complete games featuring all-original questions.
