Pointless: The Board Game

Published 2013

Based on the wily and compelling BBC TV quiz show, this game brings all the best features straight from the studio to your living room. How it works... Each question has been given to a group of 100 people who are asked to give as many correct answers as they can within 100 seconds. Questions are list based and will have numerous possible answers. Any correct answer given that none of the 100 people remembered would, therefore, be worth zero points - these are Pointless answers and are the holy grail for players in Pointless. Who will carry off the Pointless 'Trophy' amongst your family and friends. For example, if the question asks you to name a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Titanic is not a good answer as 88 people in the survey gave this. Anybody who says The Man in the Iron Mask gets a much better score of 6 points.
