How it feels

Two teams of high school students competed against each other by playing educational video games. Sometimes they used a home computer to make music or art. A celebrity guest and a quiz round were also part of the show.

What happens

It's all in the game was a Dutch TV game show for students of the NCRV which ran from 1985 till 1988. The show centered on home computer games. Several of the games were developed by Radarsoft. In the show, two teams of high school students competed in different (educational) video games. The teams of high school students were accompanied by a Dutch celebrity guest. In some instances, contestants were made to use a home computer to create music, an animation or a drawing, which would then be judged on their quality by a jury panel. The show also contained a quiz, which did not involve any computer use. In 1987, the high school teams were replaced by teams consisting solely of celebrities. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
