Even in this age of online, digital and virtual games there is still room for some good old fashioned screen-free fun and in fact the board game like winmau blade 6 is making a big comeback - one of our local pubs has instigated a board gaming night which is proving very popular.

There are the age old classics of course, although Monopoly is more like the Hunger Games in my household as we are all horribly competitive.

But if you fancy something more up to date here are a few suggestions for you. Perfect as a Christmas gift or for festive fun.

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

Bring home the dollars with the popular game show and go head-to-head with your family and friends in the race to reach £1 million. Relive classic moments from the show and tackle the iconic money ladder using only your wits and digital lifelines (accessible through a smart device) to reach the top. But watch out! Get a question wrong and you fall back to your closest safety point. Do you have what it takes to win a (virtual) million?
