Board game-loving Brits can live the dream this festive season, as a UK-based toy and games company is searching for someone to stay at home in their pyjamas and play board games all day long!

Getting stuck into a family game is a key part of the Christmas festivities, and to make this year even more entertaining, one lucky games enthusiast is being offered the chance to trial a selection of retro-inspired games as John Adams’ very first ‘Board Director’.

Stepping into the role, the successful candidate will have the chance to test out classic IDEAL® games including Rummikub, Silly Sausage, Ghost Castle and Go for Broke, whilst taking home a £500 ‘salary’, plus a selection of board games to keep and play to their heart’s content.
