Take The Brain

Anybody remember this?

You bet!!!! This was my all-time favourite board game when I was young. (Got it for Christmas 1970 I think) And it's one of those ones that no-one seems to remember. I managed to get the American version on e-bay,(it's called Smess) but I'd love the British one! Thanks for posting - that brought back a few memories!

I thought I'd already posted about TTB! Must be having a 'senior moment'

I got a really nice condition copy (no splits on the box or anything) from the 'bay a couple of years back. The character pieces are great! We used to use Ninnies as pieces in other games as well.

My first fiancee had this... yep we lead a sheltered life back then..... loved this as I was quite a hot player. Refused to play the numbskull pieces though.

My brother got this as a Christmas present. It was hardly ever played with (it might have been a bit complicated) . He rediscovered it in our parents loft a couple of years ago.

I thought I'd try my son (now 7) out on Take The Brain the other evening. He loved it and was surprisingly good considering he's not really played that many board games any more complex than Ludo, Snakes & ladders etc.
