The price is RETRO

“If this is your first time playing The Price Is Retro, this is how we play.

I’m going to list off 4-5 games, and everyone else has to guess how much the games are worth in total. Whoever’s guess is the closest wins that round, and the next person lists off their games. Everyone brought a list of games, and everyone guesses on each other’s lists.

At the end of the game, whoever won the most rounds wins the game!
But look out for Polterguest! He  guesses $300 on each list, and if he wins the game I have to give away a sticker from the merch store!”

John’s list

Dan’s list

 

Ambassador's game: Name That Game!

“Spot the fake”

“We’re given a list of game titles, and we have to guess which one was made up”

Liam’s List

 

“Games Described Badly”

“We’re given several descriptions of video games and we have to guess what game is being described.”

“Retro-pedia”

“I’m going to start reading the description of a game from wikipedia. As soon as you think you know it, yell out your answer! If you’re wrong I’m giving the other people an opportunity to guess. If everyone’s wrong I’ll keep reading until someone else yells out.”

Fact or crap?
