Countdown Board Game Review

Eileen Teo (ET Speaks From Home)

Watch “Countdown Board Game Review,” a board game review for Countdown from Eileen Teo (ET Speaks From Home) on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Eileen Teo (ET Speaks From Home) on YouTube:

Due to the popularity, Rocket Games has released a brand new version of the Countdown board game featuring music from the show and all your favourite rounds. Now you can play along as the stars do and hope to achieve a nine letter word or the elusive target number before the 30 seconds are up while the music counts down! There is also the Countdown Conundrum, where you need to be quick off the mark to spot the jumbled up word before your fellow friends. I received this product from the company for free. However, they have not paid me for this review, and they do not exercise any editorial control over my review or anything else on this site. Check out my website for more information: http://etspeaksfromhome.co.uk/2016/02/countdown-review.html Follow me here: Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/etspeaksfromhome Twitter: http://twitter.com/etspeaksfrom Pinterest: http://www.pinterest.com/etspeaksfrom Instagram: http://instagram.com/etspeaksfromhome Google: https://plus.google.com/+EileenTeoETSpeaksFromHome YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/etspeaksfromhome

About Countdown, from BoardGameGeek:

User review: Mirroring the television series, all players play simultaneously. The clock from the series is replaced by a gizmo that plays the think music from the series. The player who can make the longest word from nine random letters is the only person to score in the word game. The player who can come closest to target number using six random numbers and simple mathematical operations is the only person to score in the numbers game. The sequence of play is three word games, a numbers game, three word games, and a numbers game. The final game is called Conundrum: players are challenged to unscramble a nine-letter word. The first to solve the Conundrum scores. The players tally their points and the player who scored the most wins.
