	Parlour game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Parlour games decreased in popularity in the first half of the 20th century as radio, movies, and later, television captured more of the public's leisure time.
		Parlour games are usually competitive, but cumulative scores are not usually kept and the only reward for winning a round is the admiration of one's peers.
		The length and ending time of the game is typically not set; play continues until the players decide to end the game.

		One variation on the game was known as 'Queen of Sheba', which involved the prettiest girl in the company being seated on a chair, after which the blindfolded player had to make his way over to steal a kiss from her.
