Blockbuster Timer

About this game

Opened up your Blockbuster Game only to find out that you’ve got a busted buzzer? No need to worry – this app has everything you need to get the timer ticking and the game back on track. Featuring one timer for the Head-to-Head Round, and another for the Charades Round.

PLEASE NOTE: This timer is intended to be used with the Blockbuster Party Game by Big Potato. Without the game, this timer won’t be much use – unless you like making car horn noises.

The Blockbuster Game is made by Big Potato, an indie board game company from East London. Blockbuster is a super-simple party game for anyone who’s ever seen a movie. And just like all great blockbusters, this one’s a double bill!

Start off with a head-to-head challenge, where two players will face off against one another in a quick-fire buzzer battle, then move onto the second round: a movie charades challenge with a twist. First team to collect a movie from each genre are the winners and the new Blockbuster big shots.

Ratings and reviews

good if you have an old enough phone. if your phone is only 2 years old you can't get the app so you are out of luck unless they update it.

Needed to cook a turkey. This was an insufficient amount of time on the head to head to do so. The charades timer got me closer but I had to keep hitting reset 360 times for a properly cooked dinner. The wife was not pleased. Was sleeping on the couch that night.

We ran out of batteries for the real button but this works just as well and it's great to have if you don't have the physical one.
