Not to get too far off the subject in any direction, but we actually had a copy of Trump: The Board Game that we ended up getting rid of because we couldn't even open the box without it turning into a political argument.
You're in a room. You're wearing a silly hat.
There are letters on the floor. They spell "NOPE".

Monopoly.  It was nothing like the TV show. :)

Maybe the "Hollywood Squares" home game is more your speed :).

Although they make it look like they're playing a game like "Jeopardy," the props used at the beginning of the sketch are from the Milton Bradley edition of Beat the Clcok, and the Ideal game version of LMAD, both from the 1970s!

At one point, I owned the home game for Scrabble.  It was pretty faithful to the TV show, but I felt pretty silly owning both TV Scrabble and Scrabble, so I got rid of it.

The TV game made it possible to play along, but the scoring was weird and the Sprint became more of a speed word series. But not embarrassing at all.
If you didn’t create it, it isn’t your content.
