"3rd Degree" is a unique party video game designed specifically for the Philips CD-i platform, released in 1992. The game is fashioned as a quiz show, blending trivia with a psychological twist, making it an engaging choice for social gatherings and family game nights. Players take turns hosting rounds, where they quiz their opponents on a variety of general knowledge questions. The twist in the gameplay comes from the ability to wager on whether opponents will answer the questions correctly or not, adding a layer of strategy and suspense to the game.
The history of "3rd Degree" is interesting as it highlights the Philips CD-i's attempt to diversify its gaming library by integrating interactive media experiences that were novel at the time. This game is notable for its use of full-motion video, a feature that many Philips CD-i games took advantage of, to create a more immersive game show environment. The video segments in "3rd Degree" feature a lively host and audience, enhancing the feel of participating in a real TV quiz show. Although not as well-known or commercially successful as other quiz show games from the era, "3rd Degree" remains a memorable example of the innovative, albeit sometimes quirky, gaming experiences provided by the Philips CD-i.
