DStv turns 30 years of entertainment into a special edition of 30 Seconds
The limited-edition game is available to win via DStv Rewards on the MyDStv app.
DStv has launched a special edition of the iconic board game 30 Seconds, turning three decades of South African television, sport and pop culture into a fast-paced game night.
Inspired by DStv’s rich legacy, this unique edition of the game features 240 custom-made cards with 10 clues on each card. From unforgettable TV shows, movies, and telenovelas to legendary sports moments, beloved characters, and iconic places, every card will take players on a trip down memory lane.
Players will find clues for everything from Springbok World Cup victories to fan-favourite series such as The River, Idols SA, Binnelanders and Isibaya, alongside nods to the broader MultiChoice family of brands and the stories that have shaped the local TV landscape.
“For 30 years, DStv has been part of how South Africans relax, argue about sport, discover new shows and spend time together,” says Willington Ngwepe, CEO of MultiChoice, the broadcasting service licensee. “This game is a fun way to celebrate that shared history. It takes all those moments people still talk about, from big sporting wins to unforgettable TV, and turns them into something you can enjoy around a table with friends and family.”
The game itself has strong South African roots. 30 Seconds was created by Calie Esterhuyse in the late 1990s while on holiday with friends and family, and has since become one of the country’s most popular board games. For the DStv edition, Esterhuyse and Calco Games worked closely with DStv to customise the content, with the game manufactured in Cape Town.
The limited-edition DStv 30 Seconds board game is not available for sale and can only be won through DStv Rewards on the MyDStv app, where subscribers can spin the wheel for a chance to win a copy as one of the merchandise giveaways. Click here to download the app.
