Sometimes it takes some radical re-engineering to breathe new life into a classic board game. In this, the latest incarnation of the old favorite "Sorry", the traditional board has been scrapped, replaced by smaller individual boards given to individual players. But the star of the show is, improbably, a simple red pawn game piece, blown up to enormous proportions and imbued with the power of speech. Players draw game cards from a deck beneath said pawn who offers sassy commentary on the proceedings. It was a touch disorienting for those of us raised on the traditional game but the process of learning to play an old game in a new way offered plenty of challenges and fun. --Charlie Williams
