Take Time Board Game Review | Smart, Silent, and Surprisingly Tense

✇Brains On Games
Von: Brains On Games
16. Dezember 2025 um 18:00

💾

Time to test your teamwork… in total silence.

In Take Time, you and your team are placing numbered cards around a six-segment clock, trying to keep the totals climbing without going over 24—all while obeying weird scenario rules and not talking during the crucial placement phase. You’ll discuss a plan, go silent, place cards, then reveal everything and see whether your beautiful strategy survived contact with reality.

In this review, I walk through how Take Time works, what makes the 40-scenario campaign feel so compelling, and why the “talk, then silence, then reveal” structure creates some of the most tense cooperative moments I’ve had in a puzzle game.

If you enjoy cooperative puzzles, quiet tension, and those “we were SO CLOSE!” table groans, Take Time might be one to add to your list.

Award-winning designer Adam Porter explores the 100 most influential tabletop games in history, from timeless classics like Chess, Go, and Mancala, through mass-market icons such as Monopoly, Connect 4, and The Game of Life, to modern strategy hits like Terraforming Mars, Gloomhaven, and Wingspan.

Each chapter examines a landmark title, uncovering the design choices behind its impact and the lessons today’s creators can draw from it. Whether you’re a designer, player, or student of game design, this book offers inspiration, insight, and actionable advice, derived from the games that shaped the hobby.

TI4: Twilight's Fall Review — The Fuh?

We review this game mode from TI4: Thunder's Edge!

Visit http://plankmattress.com/shelfside to get 30% off your order with code SHELFSIDE

Twilight's Fall features the same great space opera gameplay, just with asymmetry vastly changed! Now players will draft their technologies/faction specialties throughout the game. And you can use the Prophecy of Kings mech abilities of multiple factions! The galactic ameritrash conquest still stays with strategy cards and area control. You'll still do King of the Hill with holding Mecatol Rex. However the tech tree is removed, where you activate splices to draft all sorts of cards! Is this more or less Euro friendly now? Does this reward veteran Twilight Imperium players after countless matches of direct conflict?
