Catch Phrase Review

1 May 2014 by Eileen 119 Comments

Follow the return of iconic 80s game show Catch Phrase, the ITV has enjoyed peak viewing figures approaching 5 million a night and secured a legion of avid fans old and new.  Even both of my children enjoy watching it!  It is hosted by Stephen Mulhern and long standing mascot, Mr Chips.

This Drumond Park’s The All New CATCH PHRASE TV Board Game RRP £19.99 is for 2 – 4 players and from age 8 to adult.  We played with our friends and their children who as young as 6 were able to “say what you see” and answer some simple questions too.

The board game comes with:

  • Timer
  • Paper Money
  • 96 double-sided Regular Catch Phrase Cards
  • 15 large, square double-sided Bonus Catch Phrase Cards
  • 48 single-sided Super Catch Phrase Cards and board
  • a quirky Mr Chips Card Holder
  • a clever Bonus Catch Phrase Picture Frame with clip which plays an integral part in recreating all of the lively fun of the TV game.

The board game is very well made with thick cardboard material.  The print is very colourful.

The game play is straightforward and follows the frenetic, fun-filled format of the show but here, to add to the fun, everyone takes a turn to step into the hallowed shoes of the Host.

The format of the game is:

Round 1: Individual Round using a card from the Regular Catch Phrase set. It also comes with Bonus Catch Phrases using the picture frame to ask the picture.

Round 2: Rapid Fire Round where the quickest answer correctly wins the prize.

Round 3: Super Catch Phrase Round where six cards are place down one the board. The one that guesses correctly gets the money and play moves on to the next level. The ultimate aim is to accrue the most money by guessing Catch Phrase puzzles over each of the rounds with increasing amounts of prize money on offer.

Each player keeps his or her accumulated winnings, as play passes from Host to Host – and the person with the most money after everyone has played Host is declared the winner. This game is fun, exciting and suitable for the whole family. It is definitely great value for money.

Gamers seeking to continue some ingenious, puzzling word play magic while out and about need look no further than the official Catch Phrase Say What You See! app (only 69p), incorporating the dynamic 3D graphics of the TV game show, which is available now.  Read our Catchphrase ‘s review here!
