The Really Nasty Horse Racing Game
Families can enjoy a ‘day at the races’ when
playing this devious family board game.
Just as in a real race meeting, players race
their horses around the board to win at all
costs. Be devious, bet your own horse or
someone else’s but don’t tell anyone who
you’ve bet on. For 2 to 6 players or teams,
ages 12 to adult.
£22, www.debenhams.com
The Chameleon
Look out for this triple-
award-winning social
deduction party game
created by Rikki Tahta, the
inventor of Coup. One of
you is the hidden
Chameleon, but who?
Using one carefully chosen
word each, you all try to
smoke out the Chameleon
who is bluffing like mad to
try and pin the blame on
somebody else. Each game
only lasts five minutes and
is like a mini whodunit.
The Very Merry Christmas Game
Move around the board collecting presents (present
cards) to put in your stocking. Presents have a value
depending on whether they’re nice…or naff. For 2
to 4 players or teams, ages 8 to adult.

Cobra Paw
Ninja-like reflexes, sharp recognition skills, and mental fortitude steals the game in this new tile-snatching

the tile with the matching pattern, then grabbing it before their opponents. The first player to snatch up
six tiles wins the game and bestows great honour to the Grand Shidoshi, Master Meow!

Toe' and a bunch of other stuff too

can guess correctly before the opposition does. The first team to the
end of the board wins.
