We’ve found them a fantastic way of getting people of all ages together, laughing and bonding in a way that sitting in front of the TV just can’t compete with. We’re also using them as a bit of a stealth way of educating the kids. Whether it be understanding the concept of taking turns for the younger children, or building the older ones’ general knowledge, board games are an excellent way of doing both as a family. When I saw Smart Ass at Blog On I knew that it would be perfect for that general knowledge building for the older kids. There are a number of rules throughout the game such as landing on the Dumb Ass space which means that the player that lands on that cannot answer or ask the next questions.

It is a game that enables all of the players to shout the answers out and that is why it is suited for parties and large groups. Skill – Complexity Before the answer is revealed, you bet on which guess is closest to correct. Feeling confident? Bet on yourself. Think someone else knows better? Bet on them. Points are awarded based on these bets. Each question card lists 8 clue on it. Starting at the top of the list the player reads down the clues and other players can shout out an answer at any time. But, players only get one go at answering each question. So, if they get it wrong they’re frozen out responding to the rest of the clues. Eventually, the first player to get into the center of the board become the Smart Ass and the winner.

However, an incorrect answer means that the player is out of the round. Once a player answers correctly, they can then roll the numbered die, allowing them to move their marker around the board. This leads to some interesting tactical decisions. Do you wait to hear all four questions to work out the connection, or do you take a stab after two or three questions in the hope of guessing the link before the other players? You can only make one guess - if you’re wrong, you might help an opponent solve the link.

There are two halves to the game. First, two players go head-to-head in a buzzer round where they must list movies on a topic like “based on a book” or “set in the future” until someone fails to answer correctly or runs out of time. The victor then gets a chance to win cards by acting out one movie, reciting a quote from another and using just one word to describe the last, so their team can guess the correct title. It’s a great game if you or someone you know is already a fan of the show, and might even help you convert them into playing more board games. Half Truth is a trivia game designed by tabletop titan Richard Garfield - creator of Magic: The Gathering and King of Tokyo - and Ken Jennings, the highest-earning contestant on TV quiz show Jeopardy of all time.

Each player chooses a stand and a playing piece, and assembles it. Place your playing piece on the Start space. Should there only be two players, the player that doesn’t land on the Dumb Ass Space gets to roll the number die and move the corresponding number of spaces. The game then continues normally with both players playing the next round. Hard Ass Space As the game only takes 30 minutes to play, it keeps players entertained for just the right length of time. Who’s it best suited for? In Linkee, each card consists of four questions, with one link connecting the answers. For example, if the answers were John, Paul, George and Ringo, the link would be The Beatles. Whoever guesses the link wins the card, and each card has a letter. The first to collect cards spelling “Linkee” wins the game.
