One of the good things about Christmas is that the family get together and play board games but it can be a hard job in finding a game that is suitable and fun for everyone to play. My brother received the Logo game for Christmas last year and it turned out to be an instant hit with everyone!

Life is full of things, from crisps to cake, football to flowers, banks to adverts and all these things have logo's!! This is what the game is all about - logo's and the product that is inside them!! It is a really fun game to play and is really quite straightforward.

The box is bright red and is covered with many different logos - for example Churchill Dog, Shell garage, Burger King, M&M's and many many more! Inside the box you will find a round game board, coloured playing pieces, a box jammed full of question cards and the instructions. Each card has different types of questions, there are some with just a picture on the front which gives you a great big clue about the questions you are going to be asked, others are pot luck. For example you may get a card with four random questions or you may get one that has four questions about one single logo and finally the common theme card where all the answers will share a common theme.

You will need one person to be the question master (although if you haven't got enough players you can ask eachother questions but it takes away from the full effect of the game) and that person will ask the first question on the card (the blue question) while showing the picture on the card and if the player gets the question right they move to the next blue space on the board. Teh following questions are asked and as with the blue question, the yellow, green and red follow the same principle. If the player answers all four questions correctly, they move to the next red square and their turn is over. If a player fails to answer a question correctly the question master will ask it to the next person on the left.

To win the game the player must answer two consecutive questions correctly or a red question.

The age recommended for this game is 8 years+ which i think is wrong, although they may be able to answer some things i think they would struggle to answer many of them. We played the game with two 13 year olds and they found some of it too difficult. You can pick up the Logo Game for around £29.99, but if you shop around you may manage to find it a little cheaper.

I think this is a really good game, we all had great fun playing it - made more so by playing it with my 76 year old Grandma who didn't have a clue about half of the logo's!!! It is definately a game that can get the family involved and I think the more the merrier!! I would recommend this to families as it is definately one of the more entertaining games I have played for a while!
