This coronavirus-themed board game by four German sisters is a Christmas sell-out

Wiesbaden : At a loose end during Germany's first lockdown, four sisters decided to put their long hours indoors to good use, and invented a pandemic-themed board game that is selling by the thousands. 'Pandemic', a popular co-op, role-playing board game first released 12 years ago, saw a surge in demand earlier this year. In October, a new cooperative game, 'Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game' raised more than $1 million on crowd-funding platform Kickstarter in just 24 hours.
