I saw this one somewhere a few weeks ago and wondered if I was dreaming, or if it was some sort of April Fool. What next - Cutting Out Shapes - the SWP Game? The Plasticine Quiz??

Cutting out shapes would surely be the sequel to Trailblazer.
You'd have several rounds to get through dependent on how happy the machine was.
It starts off easy, you have to cut/trace out squares, circles, triangles etc
Then ice cream cones, lassoos, walking sticks...
Then the Eiffel Tower, Vernon Kay's face, and a porcupine
Then a street map of London, a swarm of Africanised honey bees, and some microbial activity captured by high powered microscopes,
So many more opportunities to disguise blatant cheating on the machine's part and more pretty patterns for Joe Public to waste their 50ps on.
The Plasticine Quiz is almost a clone of Dr. Who, except it features Tony Hart's lovable creation Morph and his friends. By answering questions you accrue extra pieces of plasticine which go toward building up a Morph character on completion of the round. Unlike Dr. Who though, the number of pieces to build a character as a pose to hits to enemy can be extended ad infinitum, sometimes you'll just get little bits of his eye and that's after you've answered 63 questions on Icelandic Poetry.
If you do make it to round one by completing the Morph figure, you'll go onto round two. I think the £1 is at round six, hidden just behind Mr. Boorman's bicycle (made of plasticine obviously). Good luck and more cheese please Gromitt!
Also coming soon is Words and Pictures. Essentially a twist on the extremely popular and award winning Word Up/Soup. By making words on the grid, tiles are removed to reveal a picture. Spell the name of the celebrity, object or mineral to complete the round. Here are a few testimonials to the game.
Istenem: I haven't played this game yet, but I've already put clingfilm over my pans just in case.
Quiz Master: I used to think that these word games were dreary and pointless, however, this game, is better than Pub Quiz. Honestly. It is.
Nil Satis: This game will enthuse this stale state of affairs. Retirement from SWP has just moved back past the horizon.
Anfield Road: Great game! Would prefer it if they'd leave the plug within easy reach and plays better with NV8 note acceptor switched on.
Proper Pro: Shrapnel goes in, gold comes out. Whatever the weather, or picture.
GWHL: Right that's that sorted, anyone fancy a pint?
