Big Potato Obama Llama 2: The Family Board Game with the Strange-Sounding Name

Product Information

It also takes a little time to go through each of the questions, partly because of Alexa’s dry robotic banter (I quite liked it, other family members were less sure) and partly because you can’t always hear the question properly so you have to have it repeated. I love Obama Llama!! It’s quirky, it’s weird and it gets non-board gaming folk to the table! Everyone I have played this with enjoys it. The second iteration of this game does exactly the same, with some great new rhymes that mix the game up a bit and keep people entertained. The fast-paced gameplay means no one is going to get bored and it is sure to keep you entertained for hours! The game also comes with everything you need to play, so you won’t find yourself rooting around for a pencil to keep score! Obama Llama 2, created by the Radio 1 DJ Matt Edmondson, in partnership with Big Potato Games, is a great follow on to the original Obama Llama. Bringing 500 new crazy rhymes to the table, players are sure to enjoy the same great gameplay while having some fresh new rhymes to contend with.

The consortium believes the data indicates the potential targets NSO’s government clients identified in advance of possible surveillance. While the data is an indication of intent, the presence of a number in the data does not reveal whether there was an attempt to infect the phone with spywaresuch as Pegasus, the company’s signature surveillance tool, or whether any attempt succeeded. The presence in the data of a very small number of landlines and US numbers, which NSO says are “technically impossible” to access with its tools, reveals some targets were selected by NSO clients even though they could not be infected with Pegasus. However, forensic examinations of a small sample of mobile phones with numbers on the list found tight correlations between the time and date of a number in the data and the start of Pegasus activity – in some cases as little as a few seconds. But really these are small criticisms. The beauty of When in Rome for me is two fold. Firstly it broadens the appeal of Alexa beyond listening to music (which is, let’s face it, what most of us still use it for). Numerous editions of Trivial Pursuit have been developed. While the original copy is known as the Genus edition (Genus 1 and now Genus 2) other versions include Junior Edition, All-Star Sports, Baby Boomers and All About the 80s and 1990s. I would assume that India would pay close attention to, for example, western officials coming to Dharamsala – I think they’d want to monitor that in detail,” said Prof Robert Barnett, the former director of the Tibet studies programme at Columbia University. “Perhaps, is the Dalai Lama asking them for asylum? I think that kind of concern would matter a lot to them.”There are three different types of cards, but all of them are based around the same principle – they’re all rhyming pairs. Throw the coloured dice and land on pink and you have to read a description from the ‘Solve It’ pile. For example ‘Olympic diver making music with a small-stringed Hawaiian guitar’ is ‘Tom Daley playing the ukulele’. It also highlights the growing urgency of the question of who will follow the current Dalai Lama, 86, a globally acclaimed figure whose death is likely to trigger a succession crisis that is already drawing in world powers. Last year the US made it a policy to impose sanctions against any government that interfered with the selection process. Whilst this game is a silly bit of fun, it is not without some flaws. Firstly, the cards are heavily biased towards modern culture and celebrities. For a modern audience, this probably wouldn’t be an issue, but if playing with all generations of your family it may result in a few blank expressions. With the correct audience, this game will be full of laughter at the random celebrity rhymes, but with the wrong audience you will have 30 seconds of bewildered silence each round. The describers have to try and make their team say what is said on the card as best they can by detailing what is going on without using the words written on the card. “A famous UK comedy duo, big in the 80s, famous for a sketch about fork handles, well one of them is now flying in space,” for example. Solve it works similarly to this, but you are given the description on the card as well as the answer.

Another small criticism is that the questions can seem a little narrow in their focus. While playing we tended to get questions on food and drink or local slang which were often quite guessable thanks to the multiple choice format but just seemed a little, well, obscure to say the least. There are 20 cities to choose from including London, Berlin, Rome and Istanbul in Europe and you can choose questions that are easy or hard for each city. My other concern is that there are not many cards available in the box if playing multiple games with the same people. After a handful of plays with the same audience the rhymes become easily identifiable for the simple reason that you can remember what is on the cards. I'm sure that the game publishers, Big Potato, are aware of this and are no doubt preparing for a card expansion to refresh the gameplay. Final Thoughts on Obama Llama

You can read NSO Group’s full statement here. The company has always said it does not have access to the data of its customers’ targets. Through its lawyers, NSO said the consortium had made “incorrect assumptions” about which clients use the company’s technology. It said the 50,000 number was “exaggerated” and that the list could not be a list of numbers “targeted by governments using Pegasus”. The lawyers said NSO had reason to believe the list accessed by the consortium “is not a list of numbers targeted by governments using Pegasus, but instead, may be part of a larger list of numbers that might have been used by NSO Group customers for other purposes”. They said it was a list of numbers that anyone could search on an open source system. After further questions, the lawyers said the consortium was basing its findings “on misleading interpretation of leaked data from accessible and overt basic information, such as HLR Lookup services, which have no bearing on the list of the customers' targets of Pegasus or any other NSO products ... we still do not see any correlation of these lists to anything related to use of NSO Group technologies”.Following publication, they explained that they considered a "target" to be a phone that was the subject of a successful or attempted (but failed) infection by Pegasus, and reiterated that the list of 50,000 phones was too large for it to represent "targets" of Pegasus. They said that the fact that a number appeared on the list was in no way indicative of whether it had been selected for surveillance using Pegasus. Sure you can get new versions, but wouldn’t it be great if new questions were added all the time? (at least it would stop people cheating and learning all the questions).

In Obama Llama 2, players split into two equal teams. The game scales perfectly to any player count and players who don’t want to have the limelight on them can play as the guessers. On your turn, you are running through one of three types of cards as fast as you can. Trying to get your team to guess the rhyme. This can be either ‘Describe it,’ ‘Solve it,’ or ‘Act it.’ This is determined by the roll of a dice. However, if it’s yellow then you have to act out a rhyme based on a particular celebrity. For example, ‘Danny Dyer on a high wire’ or rather bizarrely ‘Tom Cruise stroking kangaroos.’Cons: A little complex working out instructions, rhyming pairs of celebrities starting to feel a bit dated.

Other motives for possible monitoring of Tibetan leaders may be more straightforward, including that the Dalai Lama and the community around him are a magnet for sensitive information about Tibet and regularly meet dignitaries from around the world.
