Nintendo DS · 2009
About this game
Game Time is the follow-up to Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?: Make the Grade and it is based on the concept of the TV show where contestants try to prove they are smarter than fifth graders.
Players must answer a series of question and pick a 5th grade partner to fall back on when they need help.

The questions are grouped in categories from first grade to fifth grade.
Every question leading up to the final is multiple choice and there are also bonus questions and mini-games.
The answer to the very last question always needs to be spelled out, making it a little more challenging.
Next to the main game modes, interspersed with dialogues between each question, there is the Homeroom challenge where the game can be played with a group.
In Battle of Wits the questions are asked quickly in successions and players can earn bonuses to sabotage other players.
In Three and Out players need to buzz in rapidly and after three incorrect answers the game is over.
The Xbox 360 version supports online multiplayer.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader? Game Time for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader? Game Time to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2009.

Market insights

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader? Game Time, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo DS titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
