Summary
The infamous and long running game show, Family Fortunes has been released for PC courtesy of Infogrames.
Family Fortunes gives players the opportunity to participate, albeit in digital form, in the legendary show.
The game features a massive 1,600 survey questions, to each of which there is a multitude of available answers, only a few of which will score you points. As in the TV show, if players choose to ‘play’ instead of ‘pass’ and fail to uncover all answers to the survey questions, the money can be stolen from the competitor.
Featuring the one and only Les Dennis, the Family Fortunes playing environment consists of a pre-rendered studio, an annoying selection of pictures of Les Dennis and modelled families of five. Family members can be customised to suit personal preference. Features such as hair and skin colour are just a few tweaks that can be made to personalise Family Fortunes.
There are two modes of play, Solo and Party. While single player is fine for a quick blast, Party mode is much more enjoyable and more sociable.
Family Fortunes is set rival both The Weakest Link and Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, and with good reason. It’s easy to play, uncomplicated, and accessible to players of all ages.
