As the days become shorter and more time is spent indoors with loved ones, a traditional board game can be a great way to unite everyone – unless it’s The Traitors official board game, inspired by the popular BBC show and currently priced at £20 on Argos.
Designed for a group of four to six players, the game involves completing missions to earn gold. However, one player is secretly designated as the Traitor, tasked with covert assignments in exchange for the ability to eliminate a fellow player during the Night phase.
To emerge victorious, the loyal players must utilize their detective skills to identify the Traitor at the Round Table. The Traitor will claim the prize fund if they manage to evade detection. Throughout the game, participants can acquire Shield cards for protection against elimination and Dagger cards for manipulating their adversaries.
For a less cutthroat option, consider Herd Mentality, available on Amazon for £21.99. This game challenges players to answer questions aligning with the majority consensus and accommodates up to 20 participants in just 20 minutes.
Alternatively, those preferring a less intense experience can explore Six Second Scribbles, a fast-paced drawing game where players must depict ten items on their card within 60 seconds. This game is priced at £14.99 on Waterstones.
Inspired by the successful TV series The Traitors, this board game is suitable for groups of four to six players.
Numerous buyers have expressed satisfaction with their acquisition of The Traitors board game. One reviewer remarked, “Bought as a gift and the whole family loved it.” Another shared, “Bought this after watching the TV series. The game is engaging and offers a unique twist at the end.”
One shopper highlighted the game’s family-friendly nature by stating, “Purchased this as an early Christmas gift for my boyfriend’s family. We had a blast playing it! Although slightly challenging initially, we eventually grasped the game and had a lot of fun.”
However, some purchasers found the game rules overly complex. One reviewer mentioned, “Incredibly intricate, not suitable for tabletop play as it involves running around the house collecting items.” Another buyer echoed similar sentiments, stating, “The rules are too convoluted; after an hour of struggling, we packed it away.”
The Traitors Official Board Game can be purchased from Argos for £20.
