  • I Was NOT Logical,Successful, Or Stoned

    Nov 10 '01
    Pros: You feel so good when you get one right
    Cons: You get so mad when you miss one so simple

    Summary: I consider myself a person who thinks logically, abstract reasoning has always been just that, abstract. My mind is my safe haven, my ace in the hole, a place I can retreat to and understand what is going on and why. This game has proved me...

    Pros: challenging , time-wasting game.

    Summary: Mindtrap is a game my family has played for years now. It's nothing new on the market,but an "oldie& a goodie" as far as games go.

  • You suck, Dee Ceptor!

    Dec 01 '00
    Pros: May promote thought
    Cons: Thought is tiring

  • This may make you feel DUMB!

    Nov 28 '00
    Pros: Makes you really think
    Cons: A bit pricey for a box of cards.

    Summary: I bought Mindtrap for my husband about 5 years ago. I pictured us sitting around solving problems to win the game. This is not exactly how it happened. We found ourselves not really wanting to put so much thought into a board game.

    We still...

    Nov 12 '00
    Pros: great thinking game
    Cons: some questions long and boring

    Oct 30 '00
    Pros: makes you think

    Summary: If you like to think, if you like a bit of a mystery, if you like something that is not always obvious.. welcome to a game you can love.

    With cards alot like Trivia Persuit, this game will make you think, and just when you finally think you...

  • Pure Logic

    Oct 28 '00
    Pros: Great Game for the mind
    Cons: Doesn't come with a fixed board

    Summary: Mindtrap is a game for more teenagers or adults. This game requires a lot of thinking and a different way of looking at questions. This game is more of a logic game then any other type. It has a great deal of mathematics and logic. The game come with...

  • This Is The 500 5 minute mysteries!

    Aug 31 '00
    Pros: Good Mysteries and problems
    Cons: Hard questions are very very hard

    Summary: My friend gave me this game because he said it stunk. I brought it home and found it to be quite fun because you can be in teams or play with two people. You each draw cards and ask each other 5 minute mysteries and problems. Then you must solve them in...

  • Fun and Challenging

    Jun 23 '00
    Pros: Easy to transport, "brain exercise"
    Cons: Some problems may be difficult for younger players.

    Summary: Mindtrap is a rather interesting game. It consists of cards (about 500), each with a "minute mystery" or logic puzzle on it. You can play one-on-one or with teams. I won't give you exact details on how to play, but here's the gist: pick a card,...

  • Umm... are we having fun yet?

    Jun 15 '00
    Pros: thought provoking
    Cons: better with teams

  • A good icebreaker, but not a good game.

    Apr 05 '00
    Pros: Huge collection of brainteasers that will entertain you and guests.
    Cons: As a game, not very fun. Definitely not for children.

    Summary: Being a fan of logic puzzles and riddles, I bought this game to play with my family. It didn't quite work out the way that I had pictured it, but it was still entertaining.

    The rules of the game are so simple that there needn't be rules. If...

  • Finally...A Real Challenge!

    Apr 05 '00
    Pros: Challenging , interesting, and fun!
    Cons: May take a LONG time to finish.

    Summary: "Mindtrap" is one of the few games I have found that takes my family, friends and I more than an hour to play. Being trivia and puzzle buffs, besides most of us being voracious readers as well, it is difficult to find a game that SOMEBODY...

  • Using the other side of your brain

    Mar 28 '00
    Pros: Fun, not the same old thing
    Cons: a bit pricey and sometimes a little too hard

    Summary: For those of you who always take the logical approach to problems-beware of this game. Some of the word questions are far reaching, but the game is so much fun. Everyone searched high and low to find a Christmas present for my husband. His brother found...
