The Rick and Morty Trivial Pursuit board game has been developed as the ultimate pastime for avid fans of the [absurdist science fiction cartoon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clue-peanuts-edition) to let them match up against other fans, friends or family.

Containing 600 specific questions about the show itself, the various categories include Technology & Science, Frienemies, Rick and the Family, Locations, History & Events and even the Wubalubadubdub Wild Card. The compact pastime comes with only the essentials including the cards themselves, a storage box and a die with players required to use their own game board and player pieces.

The Rick and Morty Trivial Pursuit board game is suitable for [two or more players](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/board-crawl) and is suggested for players aged 17 and up given the "mature" nature of the content.
