Nick Todor from GameShowVideos has given us his review of the brand new "Family Feud" DVD game, plus a video. Looks pretty cool.

This game plays MUCH more like the show, while giving both teams equal chances. Also, it has MUCH better graphics (looks a lot like the final Karn set) and actual Feud music! (Yes, it's Karn music.)

Rounds 1-4: Each team gets a separate question. Team "A" goes first, they write down their answers, and each answer is reviewed one at a time. If it's on the board, they move on. If it's not on the board, they get a strike, and Team "B" can steal by giving one answer. If it appears under one of the remaining unrevealed answers, they steal the points.

Round 3 is played for double points, and round 4 is played for triple points. The survey values are already multiplied for you.

Round 5 is the Fast Money round. Both teams pick a player, and they play simultaneously for the 5 survey questions. Like in the first edition, only the top answer is revealed for all 5 questions.

The team with the most points at the end wins.

Some notes:

The game does not track points between rounds. BYO calculator.
There is no provision for a tie at the end of the game.
No host is on the cover because Burton is the only one with a speaking role on this game. That means no Karn ANYWHERE.
It costs $20 at Target. This is compared to a starting price of $25 at Circuit City for the first edition.
