Geeks & Gamers Christmas Gift Guide 2022

*Ad-Gifted. All Opinions are our own.

In another life, pre-motherhood mostly, I was a total gamer and I have quite honestly always been a geek. Whilst in the past that was considered a bad thing, I have accepted my tag and am actually quite glad and don’t think it is such a bad thing anymore. As a family, we play a game of some kind almost every night – it can be a computer game or a board game and we love nothing more than getting together with friends and family and all getting just that bit too competitive. So here is my Geeks & Gamers Gift Guide for 2022 and I hope you enjoy it!

Top Drags

WHO IS THE TOP QUEEN IN THE DRAG RACE?: All the top queens from RuPaul’s Drag Race have been gathered and rated out of 10 for charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent. Your task this family/friend game night is to do battle with these top trump queens across the 4 fierce categories to see who will emerge as the champion. May the best woman WIN!SUITABLE FOR FAMILIES WITH ADULTS AND TEENAGERS: Looking for new fun family games or card games for adults and teenagers? This new and amusing card game is loved by adults and teens and makes a hilarious party game to play with friends and family! Makes a great travel game or can be played at home on the sofa or at a table. A perfect addition to festive games!

HISTORY HEROES

History Heroes: CHILDREN in history quiz card game – one of History Heroes’ fun educational games. CHILDREN includes individual cards of amazing people, who have helped change the world and the lives of those around them while under the age of 18. Each card is fantastically illustrated to represent the specific Child Hero and shows their dates, their flag of birthplace and seven memorable and often moving facts about them.

Sculpted Hedwig Money Bank 

This sculpted Hedwig moneybank holds a Hogwarts letter in her beak. This cute Owl is based on Harry Potter’s own pet that we see throughout the film franchise. With a coin slot hidden on the back of her head, this is the perfect gift for any fan, young or old. A great addition to any collection or just as a room accessory.

The Sock Game

The Sock Game is the perfect addition to your family game night! In this speedy sensory game, each team has a large fluffy sock filled with thirty different items. One player turns the spinner on the board – once the arrow lands on an object, it’s a frantic race to find that object!

The first player to find their object wins a point!

You can customise your Sock Game experience by adding objects from around your home and writing them on the blanks spaces provided on the spinner. It’s fun for kids and adults alike!

The Sock Game can be played with two players or two teams. Work together with your team as you share the laughter and excitement!

So Wrong It’s Right

A devilishly simple quiz with a quick-thinking twist! Each question has 5 possible answers, with action cards dictating how players must answer the question. Will you grab the card and call out the correct answer first? With 500 questions and 2000 possible answers, this game is replayable fun for large or small groups. Whether it’s flipping the words, swapping letters, or saying the wrong answer entirely, you’ll never play the same game twice!

DC League of Super-Pets: The Adventures of Krypto and Ace

Suit up as super-dogs Krypto and Ace and soar through the streets of Metropolis, in a bot-smashing, on-rails action-adventure game! The ‘DC League of Super-Pets’ video game will put players in the paws of Krypto and Ace as they take to the skies to protect the animal population of Metropolis from a new and looming threat.

Dobble

Dobble is a speedy observation game where players race to match the identical symbol between cards.

Reliant on a sharp eye and quick reflexes, Dobble creates excitement for children and adults alike while keeping every player involved in the action.

Every card is unique and has only one symbol in common with any other in the deck. The match can be difficult to spot as the size and positioning of the symbols can vary on each card.

As the game is based on reactions and visual perception, rather than knowledge or strategy, there is no advantage for adults over children, making it the perfect family game.

Bunch of Butts

Bunch of Butts is the cheeky, shouty out card game – and it’s butt loads of fun!

The aim? Find matching butts, shout them out and collect the cards, but watch out for the ‘Silent Butt Deadly’ card! After you collect cards, flip them over so their letters â€˜BUN’  ‘CH’ ‘OF’ ‘BU’  ‘TS’ are showing. The first person to collect one of each card to spell ‘Bunch of Butts’ and shout it out, is the winner!

Oh, and did we mention the spank card? Pull this from the deck and it’s a race against all the other players to slap that squishy butt! 

Gryffindor Decorative Goblet

So the sorting hat has placed you in the Gryffindor house. With a lion as its crest and Professor McGonagall at its head, Gryffindor is the house which most values the virtues of courage, bravery and determination. This decorative goblet has the colours and crest of Harry Potter’s Hogwarts house. Made from resin with a stainless steel rim.
