Hottest Party Game of the Year
GiftTRAP is the Secret Santa of Board Games. Exchanging gifts has never been so much fun. If you’ve never created and shared your “Bucket List” with your friends and family this game is for you. More than a dozen international awards let you know this game is a great time waiting to happen. It’s got great replay value and a very broad appeal. Search the web for hundreds of independent reviews supporting the reputation of this highly innovative and unique game.
It’s the hilarious social conversation starter that will get you and your friends talking “off topic” about all sorts of stuff. Build, share and compare your own personal “Bucket List” as you play.
Despite there being hundreds of party games, it’s rare to find one that adults and children both LOVE playing.
Unlike other party games you don’t need skills in drawing, acting or trivia so it works well when you have a crowd of mixed ages/skills.
