THE BLOCKBUSTER GAME (BIG POTATO)

Burst out the popcorn and roll out the red carpet because Blockbuster is back with a party game about all the movies you know and love.
Clever packaging looks just like the VHS tapes you used to rent at Blockbuster. Game board looks like the Blockbuster parking lot, complete with sign!
Split into two teams and challenge each other in two rounds of movie madness!
In Round One, go head-to-head in a Movie Buzzer Battle. One player from each team faces off to try to name as many movies in the designated category (i.e. ‘Movies with dogs’) before time runs out!
In Round Two, the Round One winner has the advantage! The winner draws six movie cards and chooses the three hardest movie titles to pass on to their opponent.
Each player parks their movies in three spots: One Word, Quote It, and Act It. Then they each have 30-seconds to use each method to get their team to correctly guess the movie and secure the card!
The first team to collect cards from all eight movie genres wins!
