About this deal

the makers claim the game is ‘cleverly designed so that children and adults have an equal chance of winning’. We agree with this claim: an adult will not necessarily win if a child is concentrating hard; I always find it fascinating to compare different versions of the same game as I love discovering what changes have been made over time and trying to work out if the changes are for the better or not. In this case it seems that design is the main driving factor for the changes in Cheatwell’s version and I can see that as a good thing. The fact that the game itself has not changed suggests that it’s a pretty good game to start with. To be fair when I first saw the board I was a little bit baffled but it soon started to make sense. The aim of the game is to stay in the game longer than any other player by correctly memorising the positions of the twelve hidden symbols. The symbols swap and change positions around the board as you play. To play the baffled game, you need the memory of an elephant. Memorize the twelve symbol tiles but beware, they swap and change throughout the Game! Baffled is cleverly designed so that children and adults have an equal chance of winning

In 1998 the AFL dedicated a monument to Wills at Moyston, close to where he lived as a child. It reads, “While playing as a child with Aboriginal children in this area he developed a game which he later utilised in the formation of Australian Football.”Failure to correctly identify a tile or space when asked will result in the player losing a life – depicted by reversible red and green cards. Losing all your lives = eviction from the game, and thus the stakes are pretty high. The last player standing takes the trophy, but as you'll find out, having the best memory only gets you so far as the other players scramble to swap, deceive, and steal the victory! Spaces Game play time can range between 15 and 40 minutes, plus Baffled game is cleverly designed so that every player has an equal chance of winning, as its not about your wisdom and smarts, it's about remembering where you last saw the symbols... For example, if you are buying a toy for a toddler that is too advanced, they may get bored and turn to other activities while they wait for the toy to be played with. Thus, early learning toys are appropriate for toddlers, instead of too complex toys.

the countdown has started, you have just 60 seconds to memorise the position of the 12 symbol tiles; each tile has been randomly placed on one of the letter squares in the board for baffled game and you have just one minute to remember where they are.. Channel Islands, including Jersey and Guernsey (Sark, Alderney and Herm are an additional 1 days delivery from Guernsey) 48 Hour Dispatch ServiceIn addition to this there are squares when a player can challenge another player (of their choosing) to state where a particular symbol is around the board. If the challenged player gets it right then the one asking the question loses a life, so you need to choose carefully. I plan to include Baffled in a future blog post on 10 great memory games, similar to my recent post on 10 great visual perception games. The aim of the game in Baffled is to stay in the game longer than any other player. Each player is given a number of “life” cards at the start of the game and when they have used up all their lives they are out. A test of memory
