Playing FamilyLore Game
Dazzle friends with your family stories Share the best part of you Your Life Find out how you and your friends are alike and different Have the time of your life, laugh, be serious, reminisce A long time ago, FamilyLore Game creator, Bob McClure made a game for his family,“McClore”. For years they played it, adding questions, creating lasting memories. Now, that game in a new edition is available. No better way to engage you and your friends in good fun. The game is so easy to play: Players move around the board, landing on one of 20 themes and answering a question about some part of their life work, school, celebrations, family, pets, cars and bikes, etc. Later, after the game has been played for awhile, players begin to add their own questions, making it unique to their family and friends.
Players move around the board by answering questions about the family. These questions are organized around 20 themes.
Of the 600 Story Cards that are part of the game, 300 have questions to help you get underway. The remaining Story Cards provide players with a chance to write questions unique to them.
To see a sample of these cards - and to practice writing cards for your family - Click on the cards to the left or right.
Serendipity spaces are at each corner of the board. When a player lands on one, s/he takes a Serendipity Card and follows its directions.
The first player to complete five trips around the board wins the game. Except, this is a game where everyone who plays wins because every player gets to tell his or her favorite family stories.
