Hasbro Family Game Night: Trivial Pursuit Bet U Know It & Trivial Pursuit+Giveaway (3 winners!)

I'm the kinda mom who would rather stay in, put the kids to bed, have a drink or two and play a game with a few good friends. Who needs to be out at the bars when you can have a few close friends over for good drinks and lots of laughs? I love to play Hasbro games on our game nights, whether it is Family Game Night or girls night!  I think Family Game Night is important because it is a wholesome way to bring your family together and do something fun! This is a great activity for any family, and Hasbro offers so many great games to make your Family Game Night perfect!

Recently I got together with my husband's sister and our very close friend for a night full of fun! We played Trivial Pursuit Bet You Know It and were surprised at how it went! We all thought the person with the most questions answered right would end up winning. The beauty of the Bet You Know it edition is that you can be the one who doesn't get any of the questions right and you can still win!  My sister in law ended up buying most of her wedges, and she won the game!

Product Description:
Bet You Know It edition is the most inclusive and exciting version of TRIVIAL PURSUIT yet, where players don't have to know all the answers to win - but they do need to know their friends!  TRIVIAL PURSUIT: Bet You Know It edition introduces high stakes betting to trivia, where players bet on whether or not their opponents know the answer. Guess correctly and players will earn chips that can be used to buy wedges -- or they can earn wedges by answering questions correctly on their turn. On each turn players are able to choose their favorite from one of four rotating topic cards in the specially designed "Mixologist" envelope. So, players may answer a GEOGRAPHY question about Dogs, Breakfast, Broadway, or Jingles. TRIVIAL PURSUIT "Bet You Know It" cards have 1,800 fresh questions which also feature a variety of new styles including images and multiple choice.  With a chance to earn a wedge on every turn - victory is that much closer!

We loved this game so much!  We had so much fun laughing at the crazy impossible questions and hilarious responses we would come up with.  The game did take quite a while to play, I think almost 2 hours.  We also didn't read ALL the directions, so we weren't aware of the limit on how much you can bet at a time until later on in the game.  But still, it was alot of fun and is now our  new favorite game. I had to do a bit of coaxing to get my friend to play at first, but she was super into it very quickly! There are a variety of genress and some pretty funny topics!  This game will be a great way to spend time with anyone 16 and over!!

I also got to try Trivial Pursuit Steal:


STEAL is the perfect trivia game if you have just 15 minutes to spare.  This fast-paced game is the first ever Trivial Pursuit card game that combines questions and answers with the strategy of winning your wedges by stealing your opponents' - all in a quick-play card game.

This game is perfect for me and the hubby to play, since it is hard to have time to play a long time together. It is fun to be able to win by stealing from your opponent, makes for an entertaining game.  The questions are just about the same as a regular game, and I am all about trivia games!  Steal can be quick too, once you get the hang of it and learn how to strattegize! I love that even if you don't get all your questions you can still win the game! This makes it more fun for someone who doesn't always do well at trivia games!  And I also loved that it was a card game, which means easy to take with you anywhere and no little pieces to lose!

And now 3 of you can play Trivial Pursuit Steal too! Here is how to enter to win your own Steal game from Hasbro!!:
