## Description

Engage in lively debates and uncover the truth behind quirky questions in this entertaining game inspired by the popular LBC radio show, The James O'Brien Mystery Hour.

Review: Good game. - Have played mystery hour quite a few times with the family. Good fun!
Review: Good for all the family - Enjoyed this because you don't need to be really in the know about politics, sports, general affairs, science etc, although the questions do cover all these topics. It's not a test of intelligence - you get a question, and two possible answers and you have to choose which one you think makes the most sense and is right. We split the family into teams. So whether you have a teenager, or someone in their 80s playing - everyone can participate. We also did our own scoring and didn't use the board - everyone had 5 cards (questions) just so that we could play it within an hour or so. So you could just take the cards e.g on a holiday and not the whole thing. It was very good, lots of laughter.

This is a really great game for all the family, I was a bit worried that my 10 year old daughter wouldn't be able to play but it's been thought out really well so pretty much anyone can play! We've spent ages playing this as a family - highly recommended!
