Compete for a tiny trophy

Taskmaster has been turned into a board game.

It comes with 200 cards featuring challenges from the hit Dave show such as ‘make something beautiful out of a teabag’; ‘guess what the Taskmaster’s favourite thing is to do in the garden’; ‘take it in turns to throw something spherical through the Taskmaster’s human basketball hoop’; and ‘draw yourself a tattoo – most artistic wins’.

Up to three players make their way around a  board divided into zones from the house – garden, kitchen, lab and living room.

Aimed at players aimed eight and over it also features video tasks from the show’s creator, and Taskmaster sidekick, Alex Horne.

He said: ‘I’ve helped craft and design the official Taskmaster boardgame. That means you can play the game and take part in the show in an organised but ridiculous way. You’ll get a tiny Taskmaster trophy, a beautiful plan of the house and loads of bespoke tasks.’

The game, made by Ginger Fox, will be available in stores this month and can be ordered for £20 from Amazon.
