DRUMOND PARK TV advertising is once again to the fore for Drumond
Park’s (DP) major new and current children’s, family and adult titles with the fi rst commercials running from August up to Christmas. Amongst the new products going into the shops now is Dino Bite - a brilliant new monster action game (age 4+), in which children compete to save multi-coloured Dino-babies from right under the ferocious gaze of a jaw-snapping T-Rex. DP says the Oginov Tumbler puzzle (age 8 to adult) has also been welcomed by the buyers for its value and progressive longevity of the gameplay. The fi rst two puzzles, The Dots and The Colours, come in the Oginov Starter Pack. To master a puzzle, you fl ip and tilt the pocket-sized moon-sphere tumbler ball containing fi ve pyramid-shaped pieces. Gravity makes them ‘fall’ into place – not always in the right place, which where the skill comes in. Rapidough (age 8 to adult), the team game of modelling charades for the family, has been revitalised and updated with hundreds of simple, interesting new everyday objects to sculpt. DP’s Gross Magic set and Horrid Practical Jokes are
proven sellers and now there are two new titles going into the marketplace appealing to tricksters of all ages. First is the Box of Shocks (age 8 to adult) described as the “foxiest, most shocking collection of pranks and tricks for playing on friends and family that has ever been put together.” DP has also signed up kids’ TV magician and Britain’s Got Talent presenter Stephen Mulhern, to launch Stephen Mulhern’s Magic Set (age 8 to adult), which contains a selection of his established trick as well as quite a few new ones too. Also in the pipeline for Christmas
2011 is HIS and HERS (age 16+), which follows the same hugely successful picture and recognition formula as DP’s best-selling board game, LOGO. The gameplay is basically a fun, eye- opening opportunity to fi nd out more about how the opposite sex ticks –
using everyday lifestyle icons. T: 01506 85805 W:
