Real Fake News? Have you ever tried to act like funnyman actor Will Ferrell’s Ron Burgundy Anchorman character, who has the ability to read aloud anything no matter how strange or inappropriate, without pause or embarrassment? Now, the fun of Anchorman is available for everyone to play at home, as the game guys at Barry & Jason Games and Entertainment have launched an official, officially brash Anchorman: The Game – Improper Teleprompter.

In an age when terms like fake news are part of the real news, the straight-faced anchorman role is even more fun to play. The Anchorman game, (for 2-8 players ages 17+) is an adult party game where players compete by sabotaging other anchors’ news stories with ridiculous magnetic words and phrases to try and get them to laugh while reading the news.
To Play: Players can assume the roles of the characters from the movie: Ron Burgundy, Veronica Corningstone, Brick Tamland, Brian Fantana, Champ Kind, Frank Vitchard, Wes Mantooth, and even his mother Dorothy Mantooth! The game, which features iconic art from Mattson Creative, includes magnetic score tokens of Baxter the Dog, Sex Panther, Lamp, and a glass of scotch. It also includes Whammy cards, which feature bits of story from the movie that randomly award points or mix-up the game play. Players keep time with the one-of-a-kind Sex Panther mechanical timer (“60% of the time, it works every time!”).
Includes: 120 News Stories, 8 Channel 4 News Trays, 1 Sex Panther Mechanical Timer, 585 Magnetic Words, 49 Magnetic Score Tokens, 25 Whammy Cards, and Instructions.
My husband and I loved the movie so we were excited to invite 2 friends over to play the game with us. I suggest playing this game when the kids aren’t home, aren’t around or once they go to bed. It’s a game for adults, so not suitable for family game night but perfectly suited as an adult party game.
If you enjoyed the movie Anchorman you’re going to love this game. We read the instructions and took turns. Let me tell you, it’s a lot harder than you think to not laugh! This game is hysterically funny! It’s the first time we’ve played a game related to the comedy genre. The more players that you have playing, the better your game experience will be.
