Aleken Games Creates Country Music Trivia Game

May 2005 – Hang onto your hats Country Music Fans! On June 1st Aleken Games will deliver what nearly 44 million U.S. country music listeners have been waiting for - the first-ever trivia game based on country music - COUNTRY MUSIC TRIVIOLOGIES.

The new game salutes Country music fans with fun and interesting music trivia about the hits and history of the Country music and the artists past and present. From Hank Williams, Loretta Lynn, and Johnny Cash to Garth Brooks, Gretchen Wilson, and Alan Jackson, COUNTRY MUSIC TRIVIOLOGIES (MSRP $29.95 for ages 10 and up) has something for everyone.

With approximately 25% of U.S. adults tuning into country music radio stations daily, Aleken Games saw the opportunity to offer an exciting and entertaining forum for fans. “The large number of country music listeners in the U.S is the reason we made COUNTRY MUSIC TRIVIOLOGIES,” said Ken Eichstaedt, President of Aleken Games, maker of the hit game for rock and pop fans, ROCK AND ROLL TRIVIOLOGIES. “It was a natural extension for Aleken. We are consistently keeping up with the trends and tastes in music across the nation. We are certain that designing a high-quality game for the established and growing country music audience will be tremendously well-received.”

Aleken Games’ COUNTRY MUSIC TRIVIOLOGIES is played by two or more players or teams and is recommended as a great family or party game. Complete with over 750 questions, including a mix of “softballs” for the casual Country fan, and more challenging COUNTRY STAR questions, the game play will spur a lot of interaction, story telling, and shared experiences for families and friends. Explore fun facts from several of the game’s selection of categories including COUNTRY LEGENDS, HOT NEW COUNTRY, WOMEN OF COUNTRY, and COUNTRY JUKEBOX on your way to achieving a COUNTRY CHART TOPPER and becoming a BIG STAR.

Aleken encourages players to share the memories of your favorite Country music and artists and find out what happens when you test family and friends if they know:
