''Horrible Histories: Gory Games'' is a children's game show, co-produced by Citrus Television and Lion Television for CBBC, that debuted in 2011. It is a spin-off of hit children's sketch comedy ''Horrible Histories'' and is a product of the same creative team. ==Game play== ''Gory Games'' is co-hosted by comedian Dave Lamb and Rattus Rattus, the rat puppet who also "hosts" the parent series. The show revolves around "horrible facts". Gameplay involves three child contestants (called "Horrible Historians") trying to obtain "Year Spheres" by completing either an historically-themed physical challenge or a quiz. Each Year Sphere contains a year which is either A.D. or B.C.. If it is A.D., the year is added to the player's score at the end of the show; if B.C., it is subtracted from it. The player with the highest overall score after three rounds is the winner. The games are divided into six categories: "Brainy", "Messy", "Scary", "Silly", "Death" (hosted by Death himself) and "Gory". Quiz questions manifest as either multiple-choice or true-or-false questions and may be asked either by Lamb, Rattus, a live-action or animated character from that period, or—in Series 3 and Series 4—Death. "Prop questions" are also asked. Similarly to its parent series, the games are grouped under randomly selected historical eras or civilisations based on Terry Deary's original books. To date the eras used in ''Gory Games'' are: *Awful Egyptians *Rotten Romans *Vicious Vikings *Measly Middle Ages *Terrible Tudors *Vile Victorians *Slimy Stuarts *Nasty Knights *Putrid Pirates (Series 1-2) *Gorgeous Georgians (Series 1-2) *Frightful First World War (Series 2 onward) Cast members from the parent show make frequent cameo appearances as the historical questioners, as does ''Horrible Histories'' author Terry Deary. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Horrible Histories: Gory Games」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
