Christmas is approaching and the TV tie-ins have begun.
Puzzle Post have THREE TV tie-ins for you to buy and play.
Have you ever wanted to have a full blown Eastenders-style argument around the Christmas dinner table? Well now you can with this set of OFFICIAL The Traitors tie-in Christmas crackers, you get six and each one comes with a hat, a joke, and a card that determines whether you’re a Faithful or a Traitor or not, and you can play a game with missions and banishments and that. They should have had miniature plastic toy weapons to represent being a Traitor really, but never mind. Anyway they’re £25 for 6, with some extra role cards if you have a few more people to play with.
They’re also doing Richard Osman’s House of Games ones and have updated their Taskmaster ones for 2024.
Meanwhile there’s a Gladiators cash-in book coming out, which looks a bit like an annual but they haven’t called it that. It’s a shame it’s coming out before the next series as presumably it will only have series one stories to go on. Still though.
We’re aware there’s a Wheel of Fortune board game coming out but it’s not on Amazon yet. Do you know of any other new Christmas Cash-ins?
I’m not on any kickback on the Crackers btw, just bringing something interesting to attention.
Although anything with an Amazon link will have my affiliate code in, buy things from where you want.
Not very exciting but there’s a Jeopardy calendar.

It won’t happen much nowadays but there must be some really bad show-related merch from years gone by when people had money to burn.
Big Sky, the company behind the Wheel Of Fortune board game, is also releasing a Deal Or No Deal board game. Neither title is on Amazon but are up for pre-order on House of Fraser, Game and, bizarrely, Sports Direct
Not so bizarre given all three are owned by Mike Ashley.
Ah, OK – I wasn’t aware of that. Thank you 🙂
