Can you guess the classic TV show from its board game?

Roll the dice on these family games from the '60s and '70s!

 

Board games have long been one of the best indoor activities for families. Today, the games can get pretty complex! But back when we were kids, board games mostly involved rolling dice and moving a little plastic figure around a path. 

There were also loads of games based off your favorite TV shows! It seems like every popular series had a board game, from Dragnet to Petticoat Junction.

See if you can guess the television show from these vintage boards!

I never knew that any these shows had board games designed after them. The only one that I might have purchased is Star Trek. It would be cool if they had a video game. I'm going to have to check.

13/13. Only got #11 correct b/c of the clue. Guessed on the last one. The two incorrect answers would not have had that kind of decor in the house.
