Why is Rave Popular?
Rave was a popular board game in the early 1990s, and it went on to sell over 20,000 copies until it was withdrawn from the shelves by WH Smith when the store was made aware of its overtly adult content. The game is significant because it is based on the subcultural dance movement of the early 1990s, which was a significant cultural phenomenon at the time.
