This is an Outrage!

Don't you just love curling up with loved ones to play a fun board game on a Sunday afternoon? Well, now you can partake in all the action in style. The UK board game Outrage! Deluxe, also known as the Guinness Book of World Records' Most Expensive Board Game, is a luxury version of the original, which is based on the 17th century plot to steal England's Crown Jewels from the Tower of London. This game is perfect for your average history buff or anyone who can't get enough of the bling!

In 1671, the Irish adventurer Colonel Blood, with the help of his team of accomplices, attempted to steal England's famed and priceless Crown Jewels when Blood disguised himself, knocked out the Tower's guard, and proceeded to pocket the gems. Although the thieves were caught after someone yelled, "Treason—the Crown is stolen," the event inspired this game. Players of Outrage! Deluxe get to try their luck at succeeding where Blood went wrong on an exact layout of the Tower of London, which serves as the game board and includes all the many passages and rooms.

This game is the real deal. There are no plastic gems imitating what the jewels may have looked like; the makers of this game went all the way and designed miniature versions of the jewels. That's right. The game-sized Crown is made up of real 18-karat gold, rubies, sapphires, diamonds, and emeralds. Even the playing pieces are made of real sterling silver, and the playing cards have gold leaf on their edges. The game board is also set in rich mahogany wood, giving this high-class hobby the perfect final touch.



Since a set costs 7,995 pounds, which amounts to approximately $15,855, each board game is handmade to order. They can even be customized for buyers. The game suits two to six players aged 10 and up.
