10 Controversial Board Games That Got BANNED
Here are 10 Controversial Board Games That Got BANNED.
5. Reality
Fun fact: the game reality also came with the tagline – the most dangerous game in Sweden, which, I dunno, feels like a low bar doesn’t it.
The purpose of the game was to move around the board and do stuff, with the eventual aim of raising enough money to move to India. Not abroad, specifically India… I mean, alright.
The way you made money was up to you, you could be a good person and act legally or you could deal drugs/ rob / kill the other players, difficult to tell what all of these symbols mean from a rare photo of the board, that appears to be the crucifixion though, hi Jesus.
So it’s all near the knuckle stuff but the game REALLY courted outrage owing to the fact the players could actually do drugs to gain certain benefits like taking speed and getting to roll 2 dice.
A campaign began to have the game removed from circulation, which eventually worked and now the mad game is lost in the past.
