Advantages: simple to understand and easy rules

Disadvantages: Slow to set up and the banker figure is not re-displayed

We were given this board game for christmas - this seems to be the only time we ever have for playing games.

We couldn't get started immediately as you have to make all the boxes up out of cardboard yourself. This was a bit fiddly but they were quite well made so they were quite easy to make up. There were also a couple of spares so if you do have any accidents you can replce them.

I'm afarid I am probably the one person in the country who has never seen a full episode of Deall or no deal - but I have seen a few bits of episodes and to be honest the concept isn't that difficult, you open boxes in turn and decisde whether you want to risk carrying on in the hope that the final boxes will contain high value amounts.

The banker is provided in the form of an electronic phone whci displays a figure at certain points withen the game, players then decisde if they wish to take the bankers off and have a set time withen which to decide.

A bad point for the game is that the figure is not re-displayed at the end of the time limit so you need to make sure you make a note of it otherwise if someone takes the banker up on the offer you may have forgetten the correct amount.

You carry on playing until there are only 2 boxes left or until everyone has accepted the bankers offer. The winner is the one with the most money over a certain number of games.

Summary: Good family fun game

Thanks for explaining the game - now if you had told us more about your opinion of the game and the things in playing it that you did or didn't like, this would have been a more useful review for me.
