Inspired by the iconic 90s movie, there is also a Jumanji board game and honestly it sounds amazing. The Colourbrain game from Big Potato is a simple family trivia game where all the answers are colours. Players split into teams and each team is given 11 different EDITION coloured cards. Colourbrain is different from other quiz games because teams begin with all the potential answers in their hands. The game begins with a colour-related question. Teams choose which card (or cards) to play and the first team to do so shouts COLOUR BRAIN "colourbrain!" The other teams now have 10 seconds to follow suit.

Apart from a few very subtle tweaks across the editions, all follow the same ruleset: read a card out aloud to all teams; each team determines what colour or colours to answer using 11 differently coloured cards before the correct answer is revealed; and points (or groans) allocated. The second reason I would steer away from the original box is that of the 300 questions, I would expect only 60-70 that a 10 year might possibly know (literally just went through them all). Noted that the age on the box is 12+, and this is the rare case of a games publisher probably pitching it about right – although do be aware even 14 or 15 year olds won’t get a lot of the cultural, cinematic or musical references on the question cards. Apples to Apples is a long-standing family classic. Players take turns to be 'judge' and turn over a random card with a word on it. The other players then choose a card from their hand they feel best fits that word, and get to plead their case with the judge as to why theirs is best. These discussions are the core of Apples to Apples, full of flattery, persuasion and hilarity. Colour Brain also has a nifty catch up mechanism in the form of the colour capture card which can be used only once per game to steal 8 random colour cards from the player or team ahead of you in points. That team will now have to attempt to answer the next question using only the three remaining cards in their hand before regaining all their cards again thereafter. Great online store for board games. They always arrive perfectly and undamaged which is important to me.If you’re planning on playing with younger pip-squeaks just be aware they won’t have a clue what the answer is for 75%-80% of the questions or understand the question – largely because a lot of the questions require some prior cultural, historic, geographic, musical or cinematic knowledge. Admittedly some of the questions are deliberately guesswork and destined to gnaw away at you – “Cripes, what IS the colour of the entertainment wedge in the original Trivial Pursuit? Damn my failing memory..” Enjoyed by both the adults in our house and loved by the kids, ColourBrain Disney Edition is the type of game that brings families together around the table, it’s fast enough to set up that kids don’t get bored waiting and it’s interesting enough to hold the attention of the smallest players for a good while. My kids have requested we replay it five days out of seven this week already.

It’s fair to say that Disney have produced their fair share of movies. And bought their fair share of smaller companies to bring them under the Disney umbrella. In fact, most everything may be Disney in the future! For now, however, the wide selection is still incredibly vast… so does Disney Colourbrain cater to this wide palette of variety? Yes it does. And it does so with surprising reach! So, if the question was “What colours are the Olympic rings?” the newer editions would tell you that you need to answer 5 colours, the older edition wouldn’t provide this useful clue. It’s a minor niggle but it’s a valued design addition to the sequels. It takes hours to finish and you will unfortunately discover a sinister side to your fellow competitors, but Monopoly is the ultimate family-pleaser.Play and entertainment for children and young people from tiny to teen and beyond. Skilled at Lego building, reviewing big kid toys and mending all things trodden on. Split into teams of kids and grown-ups, then try to answer one of 250 crafty questions about the Disney Universe. Disney Colourbrain has a way to stop you having that one in eleven chance of guessing correctly every time. Guessing multiple colours. Simple, but effective. Suddenly Woody’s bandana is three colours, not two like you though. And Nemo isn’t just orange and white. There’s a third colour there too.
