Hmm, wouldn't mind dropping 10 bucks on that from the clearance section or snagging it at Goodwill. Game itself could be a good time in a way regular Feud home versions just aren't, but it really looks like some primo Card Sharks content in that box.

Was thinking the same. I’ll probably wait for it to reach the shelves at Five Below. My stepdaughter got us all into the Feud game for Switch so they d prolly love this.

Not that there are a bunch of obvious ways to rethink the Feud license, but it's surprising that it took this long for companies to do something different than what they've been doing since the show took off 15(!) years ago.

After speculating for some time, I saw today, for the first time, official word on the fate of Imagination Gaming and Gamestar+:

$30 for a code to play an online game that was just the 2006 DVD gameplay wasn't it, fam. They were ambitious, but then they got distracted by the whole NFT/Blockchain nonsense (and never did anything with it!) and also didn't release anything else. Good riddance.

I noticed the Tomy Games Facebook site and Instagram site each say that The Floor boardgame is "available now," and "shop on amazon"

Hopefully, very soon!

I noticed at the website for Big Sky Games in the UK, some pretty neat small sized tin-boxed versions of some of their game show games (on two pages):

The Floor board game is now available at amazon.com.

I'd seen Family Feud: Over the Line the other night at CVS for $24.99.

While searching for any new Jeopardy! products online, the only one I saw was Jeopardy! Mad Libs, coming in December.

Recently, Barnstorm Games released an interactive video version of The 1% Club, subtitled "World Challenge":

https://www.barnstormgames.com/the-1-club-world-challenge-is-out-now/

They are responsible for a lot of UK based game shows, including a nice version of Blockbusters!

Also, after seeing mention/illustration over at buyavowel.boards.net, I learned that Dollar Tree is carrying rather small-sized card game versions of Just Play Games' WOF and PCJ! for $1.75 each.  I found and bought the WOF, but did not see the PCJ!

Still no sign of PCJ! at any Dollar Tree store, however here from the source I found out about the games is a couple of copies of each game:

I DID find the PCJ! card game at a Dollar Tree store ($1.75), and it contains a total of 100 clues when including the 90 regular and DJ! clues with the 10 FJ! clue/response cards.

They made a major mistake concerning the FJ! cards--they forgot to include category names!  Thus, you would be wagering on FJ! without any idea of the subject!  Shucks!

90 clues? Literally a game and a half worth of content?

But if you spend $17.50, you get fifteen games' worth!
