Top of the Pops: The Game (2020)

About this game

Hey pop-pickers, get ready to play a throwback music party game based on all the music you tuned in to watch and listen to on Top of the Pops. This isn’t a trivia game, so you don’t need to know obscure facts about Boney M’s back catalogue or anything like that. How to play: To be the first team to collect at least one Artist Card from all eight music categories. The categories are: 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, Pop Stars of the Future, One Hit Wonders and All-Time Chart Toppers.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 99.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
