Take Your Party To Go With Gamewright’s New Port-a-Party Line

Newton, MA – Gamewright, a leading manufacturer of family games based in Newton, Massachusetts, is proud to announce a brand new line, called Port-a-Party games. The line features portable and travel-friendly party games for ages 12 and up. Gamewright is initially launching two titles: Joe Name It, a fast-playing “name it to claim it” trivia game and Who Would Win, a hilarious game that pits improbable celebrity matchups against each other.

Joe Name It is a fast-paced trivia game where players try to win the most cards by filling in the blanks with the number rolled on a die and then correctly naming something that fits the category. It plays in 15 minute and is for 2 or more players. MSRP $9.99. Who Would Win pits improbable celebrity matchups against each other. Players draw cards and then convince the judge why their characters would win a randomly chosen event. (For example – Albert Einstein vs. Donald Trump in a hot dog eating contest.) Get the most votes to win the game. Who Would Win plays in 15 minutes and is for 3 or more players. MSRP $9.99.

“I’m thrilled to introduce our new Port-a-Party line,” says Jason Schneider, product development and marketing manager for Gamewright. “We always strive to push boundaries with our games, and the Port-a-Party line is certainly a new venture for us. Who Would Win and Joe Name It are fun for families, but will really appeal to an older audience that we don’t typically reach. Both games are easy to pick up and play, so they’ll be a sure hit at your next party.”
