The majority of questions in the game focus on small details from the movie.[1]Some questions use clips from the movie and then ask the players a question, while the majority of questions are found in text form, asking the player for specific details such asEdward Cullen's birth year.[2]Questions are either asked for all participants, or one person is in the "hot seat",and is allowed the chance to answer the question by themselves before other players are allowed to buzz in and answer.[1]
