About This

• Will you get the answers in time, or is that just WISHFUL THINKING? Let's see how quickly you make the connections in this fun and challenging board game. You only have 60 seconds to figure out three 'Mystery' words on the card. The only thing they have in common is that they all begin with the same letter. You (and your teammates) are allowed as many guesses as you like, so shout out anything that comes to mind.
• Let's try it: the Presenter says "Think of words that start with a J" and then gives the hint word: ‘VOYAGE’. What can you think of beginning with a 'J' to describe the word 'VOYAGE'? If you answered ....JOURNEY.... you got it right.
• On to the next word that starts with J. The hint word is ‘SHOCK’. If you are stumped, say ‘Help’ and you'll get the second letter hint - an 'O'. So it starts with 'JO'. You only have a few seconds left before the timer runs out. If you guessed ...... JOLT....... you got it right again. But since you asked for 'Help' you move fewer spaces.
• The more Mystery Words you solve during the round, the more spaces you move on the board. There’s a twist: Opponents bet which Mystery Word you’re least likely to guess - so think hard and make them regret it!
• WISHFUL THINKING Board Game is a classic parlor game that everyone can play at Family Game and Party Night. For 2 to 6 players/teams. Ages 15 to Adult.
