Game Play
======
You must successfully complete five rounds in order to beat the game.

Each round consists of ten random questions. Each question you answer incorrectly is one strike against you. Answer three questions incorrectly in a single round and the game is over.

You must answer a question before the timer reaches zero (the timer is located directly under the question). If the timer reaches zero before you answer the question, it will automatically count as one strike against you.

    As a film buff, seeing new games created based on film trivia always excites me. Flashback: Movie Edition was no exception. Films featured are those released in the past 25 years, so if your movie knowledge leans more towards the classics, this game can get challenging. Each round consists of 10 film trivia questions. The questions are timed, but you most likely won't need to worry about that unless you're playing with a friend. When you answer 3 questions wrong in a round, your game is over.

    Sound easy? It's not. The questions aren't terribly hard, but personally, the movie years questions threw me off every single time. Unfortunately, the biggest flaw with this game is the lack of diversity in the questions. I began seeing repeats after only 3 games. It's still a challenge, but I'd prefer a much strong pool of questions to select randomly from. The game is a very basic movie trivia game; if you enjoy films, you will enjoy it. If further updates provide more questions, it could be great. For now, it's simply a solid game that still feels overpriced at 99 cents.
