Keen to apply? Easy! Simply scroll down and fill out the form below, and we’ll get back to you if you’re selected! But first, let’s see what games we have on offer!
Up the ante on family game night!
Big Potato Games wants all families to spend quality time together, bonding over laughter, light competition and, most importantly, fun. Not only do card and board games provide much-needed face time with the fam, they also are great for your health and wellbeing! How you ask?
Here’s 5 great reasons to play games with your family and friends:
- Develops a wide range of skills: These include critical thinking, problem solving, decision making and strategic planning.
- Increases academic skills: Games that involve reading, maths, or trivia increase these skills in a fun way (your kids won’t even notice!).
- Encourages interpersonal skills: You need to use teamwork, communication, and even sportsmanship (who remembers when your cousin would flip the board game when they were losing, scattering all the pieces? I do, Matt. I still do). Players need to learn how to take turns, follow rules, speak up and respect others.
- Provides fun, increasing endorphins: As Elle Woods once said, “Endorphins makes you happy!” and those lovely body chemicals promote feelings of happiness, wellbeing and provide stress relief.
- Enhances memory and cognitive function: you need to remember rules, strategies and patterns, reducing cognitive decline. Why not include Grandma and Grandpa into the fun next time?!
As much as we love the classic board games, these games from Big Potato Games are next level! Suitable for kids from 8Â years and up, these fun and exciting games will drag your tweens and teens away from their screens and encourage them to participate in a family game night!
Meet the 4 games to be played and reviewed in our 2024 family game night extravaganza!
Game 1: Block Party
Recommended Ages: 8 years and up
Number of players:Â 2-6
Genre: Party
Do you have a Lego or block builder in the family who can’t help but make towers? This is THE game for you! Block Party is the ultimate block-building, guessing game that combines the creativity of Pictionary with the construction fun of Bob the Builder!
Instead of drawing a picture for people to guess, you need to build secret objects using colourful, wooden blocks! You simply select a secret object from a card, start building the object and the rest of the players have to guess it. The rules are easy-to-understand so no shuffling through instructions or arguing over rules!
Game 2: Herd Mentality
Recommended Ages: 10 years and up
Number of players: 4+
Genre: Animal
Think like the herd and you can win big in this ultimate party game! Herd Mentality is perfect for family game night as it has simple rules that will get you moo-ing with delight! To play, you need to write down the same answers as your family or friends to earn cows. Be the first to get eight cows and you’ll become the herd champion!
But beware – if your answer doesn’t match the other players’ you’ll be stuck with the angry pink cow! Your herd then becomes worthless and you’ll have to wait to offload it to another player. With endless fun and loads of laughter, Herd Mentality will sure be a winner on family game night.
Game 3: You Can’t Say Umm
Recommended Ages: 10 years and up
Number of players:Â 4-10
Genre: Party
This is one game that I will um, probably lose quickly! You Can’t Say Umm is a fast-paced card game with a simple premise – you need to avoid saying “umm” when speaking otherwise you get penalised. This game puts your communication skills to the test in a race against the clock!
With topics such as ‘My secret talent’ and ‘If I ruled the world’, players must draw a topic card and then deliver a speech related to that topic – hesitate or say “umm” even once and you’ll get a hilarious penalty! Boost your game night and get the communication flowing with the exciting and fun You Can’t Say Umm card game.
Game 4: The Chameleon
Recommended Ages: 14 years and up
Number of players:Â up to 8
Genre: Party
Ready to fool your family and friends? The Chameleon is a game that will keep everyone on their toes! Fans of ‘whodunnits’ will love trying to bluff other players or try and detect the imposter in this ultimate game of deduction.
In each round, players take on one of two missions – either being the chameleon or the detectives. Mission 1: involves one player as the chameleon, secretly blending in while also trying to guess the Secret Word. Mission 2: involves the rest of the players who aren’t the chameleon. They need to guess who the chameleon is without giving away the Secret Word! With easy-to-understand rules, The Chameleon provides endless ways to deceive and detect, and is fun for the whole family. Will you be able to spot the chameleon?
