FAQs
Below are the most common questions.
1. Can I give, take or exchange with more than one other player? NO. The only exception is for the Take Back All card in which case you take back all of your orgiginal colored gears from all others that have them.
2. To win do I only need to get 10 gears from some other player first? That is part of it BUT you also need to have at least one gear of your original color.
3. If the Action Card states Give 3 and I only have 1 gear, do I give it? YES you give up what you have, even if it is less, and the play is complete.
4. If the Action Card states Take 5 and the player that I interact with only has 3, can I take less than 5? YES and the play is over after I take those 3 gears.
5. Exchange 3. If I draw this card but I only have 2 gears what do I do? You exchange 2 for 2 with one other player.
6. Can I use the BLOCK Card to stop a proposed play that involves me? YES but only 1x and then you discard the BLOCK Card until the next game.
7. Can I use the BLOCK Card to prevent me from giving gears. YES. You can use it to block yourself, so to speak.
8. Take Back All card. Can anyone block this play? NO. This is the only play than cannot be blocked by anyone.
9. I see the game uses Brain Flakes. Where can I buy more of these pieces? visit BRAINFLAKES.COM
