We at Under the Button were deeply saddened to learn about the passing of Alex Trebek, the longtime iconic host of Jeopardy. Jeopardy was fundamental to many of our childhoods and pivotal in the formation of our deadpan, quick-witted comedy styles.
So, for the one-time, for Alex, we decided to create a custom Jeopardy game centered around the one question we all have: what happens after we die?
Mortal Jeopardy is a game that confronts the harsh reality of our physiological impermanence. Our game attempts to mediate this reality with suggestions about the afterlife. Categories are as follows: Ear Worms, Famous H-Words, Sulfurous Fumes, His Awesome Glory (In-Person This Time!), and Maybe You Were In Hell All Along.
