Product Description

Give Me The Brain is a hilarious card game set at Friedey's, the fast food restaurant of the damned. The object is simple: play out your hand. The problem is, a lot of the cards require a Brain, and you've only got one to pass around. Illustrated by Brian Snoddy.

Unlike the previous reviewer, I never played the original, so I'm coming at this game with a fresh perspective. This game is delightfully themed and very silly, and half the fun comes from reading out the bid cards as you jostle for the brain. It is simple and easy to follow, as any special rules are written directly on the card. Great for people who dislike the tedium of long and complicated rulesets, it's easy to pick right up and play even if you never have.

I bought this game because I played the Cheapass version of this with some friends of mine, and it was a personal favorite. They have done three things in creating this special edition version. The first being that they have detracted from the cheapass feel of the game by creating full-color, laminated cards to play with. The other thing they did was take a game that had a great concept and sense of humor, and add a number of cards to average the whole game's humor to a more juvenile level. The final thing they did was create cards that makes the game more mean. There are a number of new cards that you can place in front of a player that significantly handicap that player.

I really appreciated the fact that the original game was funny and fun to play whether you were winning or not. This version, while still enjoyable, has now become much more competitive and less funny.
