🐸 HOW TO PLAY
Time is testing you! Join forces to face the challenges posed by the clocks scattered throughout the different universes. Play and replay the levels and discover a challenging, ever-evolving gameplay experience with limitless possibilities.
Take Time is a cooperative game in which players work together to overcome various challenges, winning or losing as a team. To succeed, you must strategically play 12 face-down cards around a clock, following the special rules provided for each challenge.
Deal out the cards numbered 1 to 12 to the players, without knowing which cards will be in play in that game, and discuss the strategy , based on the nature of the test, but without looking at the cards.
Then, without speaking , place your cards face down next to the segments of the clock in an attempt to satisfy the general rules for the game (the sums of the values of the cards next to each segment must be in ascending order, each segment must contain at least one card, etc.), as well as any special rules that apply to the current clock (e.g., exactly one blue card must be played in quadrant X).
The game includes 40 trials , each with increasing difficulty and new rules to follow in order to play (in any case eternally replayable).
Mechanics:
- Communication limits
- Cooperation
- Hand management
Take your time to immerse yourself in this wonderful journey from start to finish!
Strengths:
- Visual impact
- Simplicity in the rules but depth in the game
- Challenger
- Replayability

Take Time – Time passes. The challenge grows. Teamwork matters.
Imagine having to complete a series of puzzles… but you can't speak freely . Every word counts. Every silence weighs.
Take Time is a pressure-packed cooperative board game that forces you to communicate intelligently , follow increasingly strange rules, and find common ground with the group.
A deck, a clock-shaped board, and 12 cards to place correctly to pass the test. It seems simple. It is... until the game asks you to close your eyes, communicate only with sounds, or adhere to crazy restrictions.
But that's where the fun begins: when time is short, and your mind is all you have.
A fast, crazy, and perfect co-op game to train your brain.
Take Time is a cooperative and strategic board game for 2-4 players, in which you face a campaign of 40 progressive Tests.
Each game lasts about 30 minutes and is played by placing 12 cards around a central clock, respecting specific conditions that change with each scenario.
Limited communication mechanics (similar to games like The Mind or Magic Maze ) make each session unique, engaging, and challenging.
Signed by Asmodee , this title is perfect for families, groups of friends and puzzle game enthusiasts looking for a compact but challenging experience.
All this is topped off with refined illustrations by Maud Chalmel and a gradual difficulty curve that will push you to become a real team.
We saw it… and it surprised us! 🐸
Take Time seems like one of those games that are simple to explain but difficult to master.
It's perfect for quick evenings, to warm up the brain before a more challenging game, or even to practice cooperation with those who don't play much.
The pace is fast, the challenges are really varied and the idea of having 40 scenarios with crazy rules makes it super long-lasting.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a compact yet thought-provoking cooperative board game.
