1977 Up Against Time Game Idea Toys Vintage Factory Sealed S10. Condition is "New".
This game is a great find! It reminds me of the game perfection. It is in its factory sealed box. Graphics on the front are faded, but still in great condition for its age. The only problem I found with the box is that it has a small pebble imbedded in the box, a small piece of tape on the box, which I am sure you can peel off. Some of the blue on the box is worn off. Please see the pictures as I tried to get everything so you could see it.
Match 'em and stack 'em....time won't wait. So drop the gate....before it is too late.
The game features an upright plastic board through which a steel ball moves down to a ramp at the bottom. Below the ramp players attempt to build a tower of interlocking plastic 'barrels'. Each barrel has different protruding shapes on top and different indented shapes on the bottom (slots, circles and triangles). Each player attempts to build the stack of barrels as high as they can (using with just one hand) after the steel ball is released. When they have either completed a full tower of 12 barrels or as many as possible they can drop a gate to stop the steel ball collapsing their tower. Play consists of three rounds and the total number of barrels is totalled up for a winner.
