History Heroes - Kings & Queens
Get ready to meet 40 key British monarchs throughout history in this enlightening and engaging history quiz card game.
From Alfred the Great to our present day queen, Elizabeth II, each individual card introduces a different monarch in our history and the key facts of their reign. Each card is beautifully illustrated and provides dates, flag of birthplace and seven gripping facts (including a Joker Fact to surprise and/ or entertain).
Discover which monarch’s huge stomach exploded during his funeral, creating a terrible stench and who was described by one Victorian historian as ‘the most perfect character in history’.
Listen to a fact read from a card and guess the hero to win it.
How to play
The aim of this game is simple: win cards by guessing the person /knowing the facts. You can also use the images as clues and you can utilise the different levels of facts (colour coded) to vary difficulty level.
This allows people to play on varying levels within the same game so different ages and stages can be accommodated. Green facts are the easiest, orange are medium and red facts are most difficult.
The joker fact at the bottom of the card can also be use to devastate your opponents!
