Big Potato have sent us a lot of games for review over the past couple of years, and these are 3 excellent choices which we've all really enjoyed, so I'm delighted that they have offered to send this bundle of 3 games (worth almost £65rrp) as a Christmas Present to one of my readers.
20 Second Showdown is a fast-paced team game for 5 or more players aged 10+ and it has the biggest timer ever!. One player takes role of referee and the rest split into two teams. The aim of the game is to complete the challenge or activity on the card before the other team.
Whenever your team 'win' a card, they turn the Massive Timer Of Destiny so that their side fills up and then straight on to the next card. It's manic and hilarious. Your team loses when your side of the timer runs out of 'sand'.
You can read my full 20 Second Showdown review here. It's really quick and frantic at times, but actually not as physically active as you'd think, so seated players can still join in fine.
What Came First? is a simple guessing game for 2-8 players aged 10+. You can split into teams, preferably with 2 players in each, but you can also play individually, and you'll very quickly learn your memory is so much worse than you thought!
Do you know which came first out of the 2 items on the card? Correct answers advance you around the board, and depending on how confident you are, that can be 1,2 or 3 spaces towards the finish.
You can read my full What Came First? review here. It randomly features Betty White.
Blockbuster Movie Game is possibly the best packaged game ever! Suitable for 2 teams of players aged 12+, you can benefit from some film knowledge - but only if your teammates understand what you are on about too!
Collect a set of 8 Movie Cards by getting your teammates to guess the movie on your card. You can only use One Word, Quote It or Act It, and there's a timer. There's lots of frantic acting and made up quotes, and at times you've no hope because you are laughing too much.
This is our favourite Big Potato Game. You can find our full glowing review of Blockbuster Movie Game here.
If you want something to bring you all together for an hour or two, with lots of laughs, a bit of silliness and some genuine intelligence, Big Potato Games are excellent. They're great for teenagers and young people, but multi-generational play is just as good. You can find all of my Big Potato Games Reviews here...
