Product Description
Bring the thrill of the Channel 4 TV show The Million Pound Drop home with this exciting family game. You start the game with 40 'bundles of money' , and get asked eight questions. For each question you have a minute to stack your money on any of the four trap doors you think cover the right answer. Spread your money across several answers, or gamble it all on one. Once the time is up, the right answer is revealed and the trap doors for the wrong answers open , dropping out any money on them. Can you hold your nerve, and make it through eight questions with your winnings intact? The Million Pound Drop Game is great fun for the entire family, and is suitable for ages 12 and up .

We were very disappointed in the poor quality of the cardboard stand housing the trap doors. Each time we tried to use it, the trap doors collapsed and in the end we abandoned the game in frustration.

I bought this for the family to play on Christmas day and was extremely disappointed. Apart from the fact that the questions are too easy, the actual mechanism is abysmal. Pieces of cardboard with plastic trapdoor inserts that, to quote the instructions, the quizmaster has to "tap gently" to make drop. At which point there is a 75% chance that the insert itself will fall - maybe along with other trapdoors as well.
But the most inexcusable part is the fact that 9 of the question cards have the manufacturers template on them so are useless unless you want 18 questions of "Question, type on two lines if possible" and then pick from Answer A, B, C or D.
I appreciate that Drummond Park got the license very recently but rushing out this piece of junk is completely inexcusable.

My daughter bought this with some birthday money & it's not cheap so felt very sorry for her as is a complete waste of money. The trap door contraption is made from cardboard that has to be folded into two to get it in the box and each fold has ripped so the contraption has now lots of sellotape holding it together. If you are lucky enough to push a trap door and the money falls down then the chances are they will all collapse. It's a shame because the concept is good, but it's made on the cheap. We now play it without the trap doors and use the questions and piles of money on a table - not quite the same!

Want to play it but can't
The trap doors are badly made, and fall open all the time and won't stay closed. The idea for the game is great and I love the concept, but if only it actually worked!

The Million Pound Drop
Found it awkward to set up. You would need an adult's help. When you went to use it it fell down too easily.

Rubbish
This game was such a let down. It was actually broken on arrival. Try explaining that to a seven year old. Read more

Utter rubbish!
We bought this for Christmas Day entertainment. Apart from the fact that the "set" was a pain to construct, the question cards were difficult to read and printed in colours... Read more

Avoid QUAILITY terrible to miss
It's terrible. The questions are guesswork (well, most of them), and it's hard to beileve that Drumond can make a game that bad. They're games are normally excellent. Read more
