Old Escape from Colditz Game, with the rototiller

[Wagriff]

Mine is still in the loft , spent a lot of time playing the game when it first came out , i was at Colditz 3 times last year with Tours, i never envisaged that when me and my school mates were huddled around the board every Tuesday night !!

Still in the loft? With the Glider?

Wow I remember the game also the series.In particular I remember when one of the POWs trys to get sent home by pretending to have gone mad. Sadly it unbalanced Him and He did go mad.It was quite a haunting and memorable episode and the actor did a convincing job.

If I remember right, the original issue of the game had wooden painted men.

[QUOTE=CampX;1160616]After seeing the thread about the Colditz Autographs, I remember I have this early version of the Game.
It is interesting as the cards are in a small Red Cross Box, and it includes copies of the fake paper work used by Reid to escape.

Missing a few of the "men", maybe I can find them sometime in the future.
