Title: Australian TPIR home game
Post by: Bob Zager on October 13, 2004, 03:03:05 PM

Although the new 2nd edition of Endless Games looks great, check out the illustration of the home version from Australia.  

There's some pretty neat mini-versions of some of the props, and it also looks like mini-versions of the stage doors as well.

Holy smokes!  Now that's a home version!

As nice as the Endless version is, this just blows it out of the water (except, perhaps, for the number of pricing games included).

Why is it that most overseas home versions seem to be so much nicer than the ones we get here?

EDIT:  I should add, just to avoid confusion, that I am referring to home versions of many game shows, not just TPIR.
