Studying a master’s degree and running your own business might sound daunting, but not for three University of Lincoln students.
Housemates Alistair Moss, 22, Lily Brown, 22, and Tom Doherty, 22, founded Legless Games from the comfort of their living room, and are now finding themselves on Amazon’s best seller list.
The original game was drafted by the group on cut out pieces of paper so they could play it between themselves in lockdown. Little did they know that the fun dares they made would be such a hit.
Legless Games released their first game Let’s Get Legless in July 2021 which was advertised as “the greatest student icebreaker”. Extension pack Let’s Get Legless Part 2 was also put up for grabs alongside naughty drinking game Kinkies Get Legless in September 2021. After the success of the three games, Families Get Legless quickly followed.
Lily said the card games “help people create unforgettable memories,”
In a matter of months, Legless Games went global, selling thousands of packs for £9.99 each.
Tom and Alistair are currently studying MSc International Sports Business Management, and Lily is studying MA Education.
Alistair shared “it’s great to be your own boss,”, and at 22 years old, it is impressive.
In Summer 2022, the students expect to release three more games. These include the highly anticipated ‘Kinkies Get Legless Part 2’ as well as brand new ‘Girls Get Legless’ and ‘Freshers Get Legless’.
Tom loves “how fun it is,” and we must agree. Nothing beats getting “legless” with your friends.
