Costs that group one slot
  • Every group is on the board. Click a group (or press its number), then click the bank buttons that belong to it.
  • When a group is full the next open one takes over. A wrong pick stays in the bank: it belongs somewhere else.
  • Start with the groups you are sure of; what is left helps with the rest.
  • Pause whenever you like (Esc). The board hides while the clock is stopped.

Pick the right number of items for each group. The groups and the bank appear when you start.

About this quiz

Every group is a list Ribbia has already checked for one of its other quizzes. The 28 bank buttons are dealt from those lists, and a name that appears on two of them is never used.

  • All groups are on the board at once: fill them in any order.
  • A wrong pick fills one of that group's slots with a cross. The item stays in the bank, because it belongs to another group.
  • At the end the board shows where every wrong pick really belongs.
