I heard that this was going to be released a few weeks back but I waited until it was actually available to mention it. Handmark has launched Jeopardy (I am tired of hitting caps for the whole word) for BlackBerry for a stiff $14.99 with no trial. The game looks like the classic computer game I used to play back in the day. I just hope the questions are current especially for the high price. They do promise a daily content update with the category of the day game but sadly there is no online multiplayer. (I dream) I just have to say that the “dazzling graphics” promised in the description are put into question by the pixilated screenshots provided.
From the description:
