Family Feud
Family Feud on the NES, developed by Beam Software in 1991, is a 2-player trivia game based on the television game show. Players answer survey questions and score points by matching their answers to the most common responses from polled audiences. The game features both single-player and two-player competitive modes. Controls are straightforward: use the D-pad to select from multiple-choice answers and press a button to confirm your selection. Gameplay progresses through multiple rounds of questions covering various survey topics, with difficulty increasing as you advance. Different game modes offer varied win conditions—some require you to win consecutive rounds while others target a specific score threshold. The NES adaptation focuses on the core Family Feud mechanic of matching public opinions through question-and-answer gameplay.
