Overview

These packs will allow you to host an exciting Christmas Board Game Tournament. The tournament will last approximately two hours. A half hour refreshment break can be inserted into the tournament if you wish.

Four games will be played. These are:

The Christmas Dinner Buffet Game
Guess Whose Christmas Present
Postmen's Christmas Card Race
Christmas Bingo

Each game will be played by all players simultaneously. All players will score points for the games. They record these points on their Master Score Sheet. At the end of the tournament the player who has scored the greatest number of points is the winner. Alternatively players can be split into teams and the team that scores the greatest number of points will be the winners.

Eight playing boards are provided in the small pack for each game. 20 playing boards are provided in the large pack for each game. All boards have a slightly different layout to each other which enables all players to play simultaneously under the leadership of the Party Host.

The large pack also contains full scripts which the Party Host can use to explain the games and their rules to the players.

Game 1 - The Christmas Dinner Buffet Game

In this game players are trying to be the first player to collect all 12 components of their Christmas Dinner. These components are linked by different coloured pathways. Players take it in turns to call out a colour and everyone moves along a pathway of the named colour from one buffet item to the next. Each time they land on a buffet item they haven't yet visited, they add it to their tray. The first person to collect all 12 items is the winner and scores 75 points. The other players score 5 points for each item they have on their tray. Players record these points on their Master Score Sheets.

Game 2 - Guess Whose Christmas Present

In this game players will be trying to identify which of 24 presents Santa is about to deliver. They have 9 questions with which to whittle down the presents before deciding whose present they think Santa has. Those who guess correctly will score 25 points. The game will be repeated several times with each correct guess scoring 25 points. Players record these points on their Master Score Sheets.

The special design of the playing boards means that the answers to the questions will cause different players to eliminate different presents. However the present Santa is about to deliver will never be eliminated.

Game 3 - Postmen's Christmas Card Race

In this game each player's playing piece represents a postman. The playing boards show the postman's delivery route which starts and ends at the Post Office. In between it heads through the streets of Christmas Town. Namely:

Tinsel Street
Bauble Road
Angel Avenue
Turkey Street
Sprout Lane
Ivy Row
Holly Lane

Along the route are various Christmas cards in addressed envelopes. Due to the Post Office's new "Instant Delivery" service, if a postman lands on a card, they have to instantly deliver it by going to the appropriate square. Envelopes with green stamps will move the postman forwards towards the finish square. Envelopes with red stamps will move the postman backwards towards the start square. There are also squares that "double your move" and squares that contain "Santa Bonuses". All players play simultaneously, moving according to the communal dice roll made by the Party Host. Players are trying to get their playing piece to the finish square within 40 dice throws.

After 40 dice throws players will score points according to how far along the postal delivery route they have moved their playing piece. Bonus points will be scored by those players who made it back to the Post Office Home square. All points are recorded on their Master Score Sheets.

Game 4 - Christmas Bingo

A bingo game with a difference. All players have 15 items on their bingo card. There are three items from each of the following categories:

Christmas Decorations
Christmas Food and Drink
Nativity Story Characters
Films set at Christmas Time
"Murder with Santa's Reindeer" Characters

The Party Host calls out items until someone crosses off all 15 items and calls out "Christmas Bingo". All players then score points according to how many items they have crossed off. Bonus points being awarded if they have managed to cross off all three items within a particular category. Players record these points on their Master Score Sheets. Enough bingo cards are provided so that, if players are feeling dextrous, everyone can play two bingo cards at the same time!

Winners

Players now add up all of the points they have recorded on their Master Score Sheets. The player or team with the greatest score are the winners. Prizes can be awarded if you wish.
