Colditz the Board game

[Parson Henry]

Riveting stuff.....addictive to the core.

Can you still get it in the shops?

 

[London Calling]

So good you needed to post it twice

 

[Publius Ovidius]

Do you know, I threw that away about a year ago....It was 100% complete too

Great game. Liked being the German guards with a shoot to kill card up my sleeve.

The removal men managed to lose the box lid, but I've still got the original game.

I believe it is still available, as I thought about buying a new one when my lid went missing, and found it in an on line shop.

 

[The Auditor]

bound to be availiable on ebay

 

[Yorkie]

One of my kids took it with them when they left home but I can't remember which one.
It was a good game.

Always thought getting the Staff Car was the best escape route! Schnell...

A great game might have to go looking for a copy.

i bought a copy on ebay about 2 yeears ago during a retro games collection addiction phase i was going through.
gave around £30 for it if i remember.

it's total quality as far as board games go

Got mine still, with battered lid. I always liked the escape via the staff car. If you didn't make it you were dead! Can anyone remember what colour the nationalities were? I think the Poles were green!

Back in the mist of my youth I had some mates who lived on Buckingham Place/Road ?.
We used to hang out round there all the time getting pissed and doing whatever was available. One day someone had scored some acid, so away we went. Some bright spark had the idea of playing 'Escape from Colditz'. How the f*** are you supposed to play a war escape/strategy game whilst tripping yer nuts off ?
Well you can't. So another bright spark had the idea of playing 'Strip Escape from Colditz'
I don't know how it worked , but there was 3 blokes and 4 girls and I escaped lightly.
Marvelous scenes.









One day I'll tell you about the games of naked Twister on acid.


Better marvelous scenes.

I bought a new copy about 5 years ago and I think is still available. The originals go for quite a bit of cash on eBay in good condition and if its complete.

Dutch were orange
French were brown
Brits were blue
Americans red.

Though the last two could have been the other way round.

German guards were black.

just dug it out Brits are Red, Yanks Blue
