Super Scattergories is based on the original board game where players draw an alphabetical letter at random and then must come up with answers that fit in different categories, all while a timer counts down. A full game of consists of six rounds. In the rounds where the game requires typing, players only need to enter the first three letters of an answer. The computer fills in the rest. (Round five, Scattered Categories, is the only round where players use the mouse instead of the keyboard).
