That ruled. We never had it. Always had to play it at friends' houses.

Anyone played the new monopoly? The electronic one, thinking of getting it ^^

Campaign was the best board game. Frustration was pretty good too.

Buckaroo and pop-up pirate were my favs! :eek:

Although dragsters was fun too.

Mousetrap!!

I don't remember ever once playing the actual game but I used to love building the contraption to catch the mouse - that was cool... a bit like those ball-bearing machines that they used to have on Sesame Street.

The aMAZEing Labyrinth (only recently found out its English name, had it dutch as "Doulhoff" or something for years) is a serious beast of a game

Screwball Scramble rocks. I've also got another one that is really similar (but completely different if you catch may drift) that also rocked.. shall go looking into the cupboard once again..

Some quality games there, I used to have Screwball Scramble, it was amazing, and the rip off Rock n Roll Maze. I was going to say Mouse Trap but someone beat me to it. I remember that Dragster game too, it was great.

I used to love Hungry Hippos

The game of life, i think it's called that, also a quality game.

This man speaks the truth. FACT.

Screwball Scramble was a reasonable 2nd place.

I actually have one of them in mint condition 10ft away from me right now. I couldn't get anyone to play it when I was a kid, nobody else was interested in colditz but I was reading the books and watching the series at the time.

I remember when I was little me and my sister saved up all our money to buy it and it rocked. Also rebound I think it was called was ace, the one where you had balls with bumper on them and "bowled" them at a double corner to try to get them into the scoring zone. Used to love it when the kid who had that brought it in on the last day at school.

Screwball Scramble was my pride and joy for a few months when I parents bought me it. Till I swallowed the ball bearing

Didn't have it in me to retrieve it.

Are those dragsters the wrong way round?

Can anyone remember the the game where two of you had to build a castle and take turns firing disks out out crossbows and catapults (think that might be the name?) to destroy the other persons castle.
