So I'm looking to buy a board game which a mate had when I was a wee lad and I'm buggered if I can remember its name and as a consequence, how to track it down if possible.
It was a square board with a chrome steel ball which you had to move through an obstacle course type setup comprising or a couple of rods which you had to manipulate to make the ball move along, a set of steps which you had to tap the levers to get the ball to jump from one to another etc and a few other disciplines. I saw it for sale in BigW a few years ago so it is/was still in production but I didn't grab one at the time or take enough notice to remember the name. Any idea's? |

I remember that! Another one of those games that comes to mind is Mouse Trap.
Ages 5 and above...lol. I wonder how many kids were rushed to the emergency room with some of those pieces lodged in their windpipe |

This board games are much better in teaching us how to socialize than the gadgets we have today.
