GiftTRAP - The game that keeps on givin'


GiftTRAP - The game that keeps on givin'

KELOWNA- September, 2006 - Buying gifts for family and friends that are always spot-on can be a challenge at best - after all, how many ties can you give your father-in-law? The gift-giving conundrum may however be a thing of the past, thanks to board game enthusiasts Nick Kellet and his eldest daughter Freya. Who needs a personal shopper when you’ve got GiftTRAP - the game that keeps on giving, or the gift that keeps on gaming!

Designed to test your gift-giving savvy, GiftTRAP enables family and friends to get down to the nitty-gritty by testing (and developing) your emotional intelligence through the giving and receiving of virtual presents. Choose the right gift for your fellow players, and you score points. Choose a bad gift and you lose points. Winning is about being as good at giving the right gift as you are at being given presents you most want.

Sounds easy, right? You get to be the judge of that as you can give any gift that’s dealt from the gift pack. From eco gifts to adventure or cultural choices, you’ll learn about the likes and dislikes of your playmates, even if it’s the hard way! Due to the nature of the game and because no real gifts are exchanged, players may be more likely to be brutally honest with you about what they like or what a flop your choices might be. On the upside, all of this honesty and virtual generosity will keep you in the know, enabling you to maintain a tidy stash of giftable solutions for future occasions. Greg Schloesser a member of the International Gamers Awards Committee said, ‘GiftTRAP is simply fun, and evokes continuous outbursts of surprise, frustration and laughter as gifts are revealed. GiftTRAP is truly a gift worth giving or getting!’

The board game is designed for three to eight players and can be played in as little as forty-five minutes. While you can memorize trivia and google obscure facts, you can’t look up the answers to the inner-workings or preferences of those you like, love or call your family. Now that’s a game that’s worth its weight in gifts!
