Family Fortunes is back for a 2nd Edition

If this game isn't popular, we'll give you the money ourselves

Family Fortunes is back for a 2nd Edition

Family Fortunes continues to be a popular TV game show here in the UK, despite the efforts of Les Dennis and a succession of slack-jawed idiot families to make it a laughing stock. Actually, the silly answers are one of the best bits, come to think of it.

Anyway, Player X released the original Family Fortunes mobile game, and it's been popular enough to spawn a second edition called, logically enough, Family Fortunes 2nd Edition.

Unsurprisingly, the basic format remains the same, based closely on the TV show itself. However, the look and feel has been enhanced to more closely match the show's graphics, with more animations to keep your attention.

The questions have all been taken from the show, too, including some of the more famous bloopers (we're hoping that includes the Naomi Campbell one*). Finally, to spice things up, there are two new game modes: Party Mode and Team Mode.

The game's due out soon, so click 'Track It!' for an email when we review it.

(*When asked to name 'a bird with a long neck', one contestant blurted out Naomi's name. This may be an urban myth, mind.)
