I work in a store that sells board games that was for many years- a blockbuster! I was so thrilled to find this gem in our shipment and purchased it immediately
Do you live in a city with Meetup groups? There are often board game Meetup groups or you could start your own! Just an idea. I know how hard it is to make friends as an adult.
Ok as a film student and a collector of BPG I literally could not be more happy with this! Easily looking like a top spot contender next to Scrawl and Chameleon 🤩
I bought this game to play after Thanksgiving dinner. We had SO MUCH FUN! 4 adults and 2 teens. We didn’t keep track or did the strategy so we played for a while. Drawing complete blanks on the actual title of a movie while your playing the head to head round was a common theme amongst our group but we had many laughs and lots of fun.
Question. In a similar game with music, if you have three cards of one genre, you can trade them in to steal a genre from the opposing team. Is this legal in blockbuster?
Hey need rule clarification when challenging an opponents answer in head vs head dose have to be the newest answer or can u challenge a previous answer before also can u challenge an opponents answer after giving out an answer? Need help plz
Just for fun my husband and I will do the head to head cards with the buzzer to see who can be the last one to name a movie before the timer runs out. It’s not the full game but fun like Rock Paper Scissors or something lol
Cervantes444 It looks like you can get it online on Amazon. Or if you have Target stores in Europe, you could find it there or possibly buy from the Target store online and have it shipped to you. (And if you’re wondering, Blockbuster used to be a video store in America, where families could go and rent movies for a few nights to watch and then return them when done. Blockbuster stores are all closed now but it used to be a huge thing before Netflix took over lol)
If both teams are done then these cards get discarded, however if the team after you finishes all their cards in 30 seconds, they get a chance to steal them and try and win extra cards. Hope this helps!
They no longer give you the buzzer. instead you're supposed to download an app from them to use the buzzer. I get trying to keep profits high but Kinda disappointing :/ at least I kept the reciept
Sorry to disappoint you, we're looking to remove as much plastic in our games as possible at the moment and decided the buzzer was not needed to be a physical component.
Thanks for the Sticker!! As a stickerholic I really appreciate the premium!! Can't wait to massacre my kids on this Game, they never even seen a Blockbuster, or like 90% of them movies. Blah Ha Ha!
I coach basketball at the 15-17 age group. Last year, i was driving some players home and we got a whole video game discussion going. At one point, i said "man, i remember going to Blockbuster to rent games" and my players said "What's blockbuster?" FYI, i'm 28 (as of this post). I felt old in that moment...

Amazing! The perfect game for that location haha
Blockbuster was reincarnated as a board game
My sister got this for me as a Christmas gift today, tears of nostalgia and joy happened. Omg its so freaking cool! Cant wait to host a game night.
Ryan Flores Have you hosted yet ?
I want to play this game. But I have no friends.

Welcome to the glorious 21st century, where everyone wants friends but no one remember how to make them 😂
i do

Sounds like the perfect game for you Luke!
Literally bought this today. Can't wait to try it
Hope you have a great time Jay!
Purchased this last night at Wally World!! Fun night with the family
I wish this wasn’t only 4+ players for someone who lives in a 3 person household
Oof
I just got this game today and i'm excited to play it
@@KenzieRetro hope you have the best time!
I just found this game at Target!!! Looks like I’ll be buying it after watching this
Amazing! :)
Great game. Would love to see some expansion packs

That's so super lovely to hear!
please release an expansion pack! we love this game and have memorized the movies 💙
We have! Seach for "blockbuster returns"
Videos like these are so incredibly helpful. Thank you!
A game like this but with Video Games and I’d be Golden.
Same 🤩
Looking for some clarification on the rules for quote it, are you only allowed 1 quote from(about) the movie or several?
Hello there! Just one quote, so choose wisely!
I 💖 Blockbuster! I got the board game, from Aldi!
Representing with my DnD tee 🤘

Has to be the most recent answer, if you give your next answer they're in the clear.
Can you guys eventually make expansion packs for this one? Or some kind of purchase system where you can make more cards as more movies come out?
We've had a few requests for expansions so hopefully in the future!
@@BigPotato could you also create a variant for 2? I'm thinking a co-op would be good. 😁
What is the subscription
Does anyone have a recommendation on playing this with two people? I bought it but I didn’t realize it’s teams.
Just for fun my husband and I will do the head to head cards with the buzzer to see who can be the last one to name a movie before the timer runs out. It’s not the full game but fun like Rock Paper Scissors or something lol
dd mack thanks so much!
This looks like ALOT of fun
What happens if you dont know anything about the movie that is in your cards? Do you have to place all three cards on the board?
You just have to try your best! You can make up a quote or charades it in the act it out.
If I collect all 8 genres, and win. But since that’s the end of the round, can the enemy team steal? Even though My team technically won?
As soon as you hit the win condition you have won!
Hello! I'm not American, I never know the Blockbuster, but the board game looks like fun! Can I order the game somehow in Europe? Thanks the answere!

@@88Shadowfrost Thanks
Wow that’s a lot of directions
What happens to the cards left on the board if a players team cant guess them all in the 30 seconds?
If both teams are done then these cards get discarded, however if the team after you finishes all their cards in 30 seconds, they get a chance to steal them and try and win extra cards. Hope this helps!
How long does one game usually take?
It depends! On average around 30 mins.
I don't have a buzzer, and I just got it
Can you play this game by yourself since I don't have any friends?
Unfortunately not this game, our game What Next can be played solo!
I didnt even know this game existed!
No mention about the stealing rule that is in the instructions. Why not?
This is the simple version of the rules :)
@@BigPotato doesn't seem like the hardest rule to explain in a short video. Adds alot to the gameplay.
Yes please expand on this rule. What if both teams steal and have 8?
Blockbuster party game
Are shows allowed in the Head to Head for answers
Only movies!
Big Potato Games
Alright thanks for letting me know
What if you get a card and you don t know what the movie is so you can't quote it/act it/whatever? Just pass?
You can make up a quote as long as you don't say the name of the film!
They no longer give you the buzzer. instead you're supposed to download an app from them to use the buzzer. I get trying to keep profits high but Kinda disappointing :/ at least I kept the reciept

Is there a bankruptcy card?
I don’t have this many friends. Guess I won’t be playing.
its good but 30 sec is too lirrle fod part 2

My game did have a buzzer or blockbuster sign.
Oh no! Best to email our customer service team on hello@bigpotato.co.uk
@@BigPotato I figured it out. I bought the expansion pack blockbuster returns. The original game. Which why there was no blockbuster sign.
Aha! @@CanaAlyce
My blockbuster sign was made upside down 😔
Really sorry about that! Best to email hello@bigpotato.co.uk to get a replacement :)
It would be cool if the yellow card backs had a bit of art to look like cars. 😊 Just ordered from John Lewis in UK.
What do you do when no one can guess during the second part of the game? We just took the cards away and started with the head to head part again.
Yes you just start from the head to head again :)
@@BigPotato but what happens to the cards that are left on the board?
@@kathleenwelsh7966 They go to the bottom of the pile as they have not been won.
Please make a TV Series & Anime version. 😭❤️🙏

Quite similar to Indian game dum sharat😄
Was the narrator an AI?
Man.. that Indian guy is not very good at this game.
I coach basketball at the 15-17 age group. Last year, i was driving some players home and we got a whole video game discussion going. At one point, i said "man, i remember going to Blockbuster to rent games" and my players said "What's blockbuster?"
