Prerequisites: Students have a basic knowledge of what geography is and are somewhat familiar with the game Jeopardy! (this is kind of what my games are based on in that the handheld game gives the kids clues and they have to guess the state, so they don't have to form a question but just have fun guessing along with their friends or in a group, like a small book discussion group).
