The only slightly evil 6x6x6 quiz

A little light entertainment for the festive break. Answers will be posted on NOBOG facebook page (behind a spoiler screen)  


Round 1. Anagrams – There’s a board game in there, what is it?

Let's start things off relatively easy. All these are board games, some older, some modern (and of the modern ones. all have been played at NOBOG)

  1. Nice damp
  2. Cooler tot  
  3. Pork watch
  4. Tito Deck rite
  5. Dirty PC
  6. Toe or pain

Round 2. Cult of the old – match these dates to the games that were first published in that year

Perhaps a little harder, but easy to have a guess if you don't know

  1. 1983
  2. 1993
  3. 2001
  4. 2004
  5. 2007
  6. 2011

.    

  1. Castles of Burgundy
  2. Cockroach Poker
  3. Escape Rooms (i.e. the date of the 1st physical escape room)
  4. Jenga
  5. Magic the Gathering collectable card game
  6. Munchkin


Reverse quiz - Here’s the answer, but what is the question?

Now here's the truly evil round, and it covers wider than just board games, extending to cards and hobbies/puzzles. No sneaky use of internet to look these up! It's much more fun to try and work them out. Get more than a couple without cheating and that's impressive.

  3. 24 Wensum St, 16 Charing Cross, 41 St Andrews St, 17 Tombland
  4. 43 252 003 274 489 856 000
