The game has eight rounds, and all of them revolve around movies, with a healthy dose of general trivia mixed in. Similar to You Don't Know Jack and Trivial Pursuit
in tone, it is distinguished by the DVD player keeping track of the score. Each DVD has three games, and each game has eight rounds.
ODVD has created 4 volumes of "Shout About Movies", as well as "Shout About Music", "Shout About Television", "Shout About Country Music", and a Spanish-language music game called "Grita y Acierta". Most recently they created the "Trivial Pursuit
: Totally On-Screen" DVD game, which puts the game board on-screen for a faster-paced game with more head-to-head competition, video clips, and music.
