Description

Mall Madness is one of the Milton Bradley "Flipsiders" games that resembles an audio cassette until you "flip" the game open. Each player starts with 200 dollars. On your turn you spin the 2 spinners - the first spinner tells you which store you must try to reach this turn, while the second spinner tells you how many spaces you may travel along the paths. If you can reach the store indicated, you spend the amount of money shown on the space, otherwise you just move the number of spaces shown on the spinner. Some spaces allow you to take shortcuts. The first player to spend 200 dollars exactly wins.

Quotes (from this video)
  • At the core of it, I really want this show to be about teaching you how to play games and then showing you how they're played so you can decide for yourself whether or not they'd be a good fit for you.
  • It It's scary to be honest at times because basically I'm relying on the generosity of our viewers to donate during our yearly fundraisers that we usually hold around June time.
  • I really just want to feature published games on Watch It Played. Games that are widely available that already have finished components and more importantly finalized rules.
  • I really don't like recommending games ever.
  • I just have a certain discomfort with the idea that someone would use my opinion as the basis for them spending money in search of entertainment.
  • Speaking of which, Joel Eddie of the very excellent and highly recommended drive-thru review series asks, "Rodney, is it true that Canadians are forced to live in the forest once their igloos melt in the spring?"
