Game 6 - Shift Around (2-4 players)

Brain Shift will get you started, but your fellow players will keep you going!
Each player must shift through the established sequence, then add a new
color of their choice to extend the pattern.

SELECTING A GAME

Players can choose from a menu of six exciting games.

• Game 1 - Stick Shift (1-4 players)

• Game 2 - Memory Shift (2-4 players)

TM

• Game 3 - Who Shifts (2-4 players)

• Game 4 - Ear Shift (1-4 players)

• Game 5 - Secret Shift (1 player only)

• Game 6 - Shift Around (2-4 players)
As soon as Brain Shift is turned on, you will be prompted to select your

game. Notice how the number of allowable players changes from game to
game. Be sure to keep that in mind when you make your selection.
Get started by shifting to the numbered light that corresponds to the game
you wish to play. For example, if you want to play Who Shifts (Game 3),
move the stick shift to the yellow light (#3). So rev up your engine and start
a game-find out if your shifting skills will bring you fame!

BRAIN SHIFT

Okay, listen up! Get your brain in gear and let's play Brain Shift!

OBJECT

Using the stick shift, correctly follow Brain Shift's voice and sound commands.
Be the only player to successfully complete the pattern and you win the
game. Better be fast and follow the flash. If you take a wrong turn, you will
certainly crash! So start your engine and listen up. Get your brain in gear
and let's play Brain Shift.

GAME

Four steering wheels anchor the Brain Shift game, with one wheel designated
for each player. In the center of the game sits the stick shift, surrounded by
six color (and numbered) lights: (1) red; (2) green; (3) yellow; (4) blue;
(5) orange; and (6) white. During a game, players will shift to each of these
lights according to the prescribed pattern. The stick shift is also used to
select a game and the number of shifters (players).

Two small, black buttons are located at the base of the stick shift.
The "on/off" button is pressed to start and/or turn off Brain Shift.
You can also press this button to repeat the current Brain Shift game.
Each game ends with the phrase "this game is over." To repeat a game,
you must press the "on/off" button before you hear "this game is over" for
a second time. If you hear "this game is over" a second time, Brain Shift will
automatically shut off. The second button ("pause game") is pressed when
players wish to pause the current game or resume play.

QUICK PLAY

In a hurry to get started? Then the Quick Play instructions below are for you!
If you have any questions, you'll find the answer in the detailed instructions.
So listen up, get your brain in gear, and get going--you're ready to play
Brain Shift!
Using the stick shift, correctly follow Brain Shift's voice and sound commands.
Be the only player to successfully complete the pattern and you win the
game.

Game 1 - Stick Shift (1-4 players)

The game begins by asking players to shift to one of the six colors (red,
green, yellow, blue, orange, or white). Brain Shift will call out a player,
followed by a color. The selected player must then shift to that color.
As players complete the patterns, additional colors will be added and the
time allowed for shifting will decrease.

Game 2 - Memory Shift (2-4 players)

Brain Shift will call out a player, followed by a sequence of colors.
The player must memorize the colors then quickly shift to each color in
exact order. Players will be "called" in numerical playing order (Player 1
begins, followed by Player 2, and so forth).

Game 3 - Who Shifts It (2-4 players)

Game 3 is the same as Game 2 with one difference-players are selected at
random. Brain Shift will call out a sequence of colors and then select the
player.

Game 4 - Ear Shift (1-4 players)

Brain Shift associates a unique sound to each of the six color lights.
Instead of telling players to shift to a specific color, Brain Shift will emit the
unique sound. Players must remember where the sound is located and shift
to that color. You also have to remember the sequence of the sounds.
For each new sound, you must first shift, in correct order, to the previous
sounds before shifting to the new sound.

Game 5 - Secret Shift (1 player only)

Brain Shift only gives you the first color. It's up to you to figure out the
remaining pattern. You must guess what the next color may be. If you guess
right, you will hear the "shifting gears" sound and can move on to guess the
next color. If you select an incorrect color, you will hear the "raspberry"
sound and will have to start from the beginning, shifting back to the first
color. You only have 60 seconds to complete the secret code.

NUMBER OF SHIFTERS (aka Players)

The number of allowable shifters changes from game to game but never
exceeds four. As soon as you have selected your game, Brain Shift will
prompt you for the number of shifters. Move the stick shift to the numbered
light that corresponds to the number of shifters participating in the game.
For example, if two shifters are playing, shift to the green light (#2).
Brain Shift will confirm the number of players selected, "Okay, 2 Shifters!"

TO BEGIN PLAY

Place Brain Shift on a flat surface and hold on to your steering wheel.
This will keep the game stable during play.

Press the "on/off" button to begin the Brain Shift challenge. You will be
prompted to "choose your game"--shift to the number that matches the
game you wish to play. Brain Shift will confirm the game and then ask you
to select the number of shifters--shift again to the number that matches the
number of shifters. Once the shifters are confirmed, the Brain Shift race
begins! Watch out for the "crash" and "raspberry" sounds! If you hear them,
you have made a wrong turn or are "shifting" too slow!

Are you ready to play? Better be sure, better be quick, better be
ready to shift the stick!

Game 1 - Stick Shift (1-4 players)

"Okay, you shift what I call!" The game begins by asking players to shift to
one of the six colors (red, green, yellow, blue, orange, or white). Brain Shift
will call out a player, followed by a color. The selected player must then
shift to that color. If all players successfully shift their one-color pattern,
Brain Shift will add a second color. If all players successfully shift their two­color pattern, Brain Shift will add a third color, and so forth. As colors are
added, the time allowed between shifts will decrease.

Example: "Player 1--shift red." [Player 1 shifts to red.] "Shift green." [Player 1 shifts
to green.] "Player 2--shift yellow." [Player 2 shifts to yellow.] "Shift blue." [Player 2
shifts to blue.]

If you shift to the wrong color, or if you are not fast enough, you crash!
If all players "crash," then the pattern is repeated and you get another chance!
You are "out" if any player that follows you successfully completes that
pattern. The game continues until only one player has successfully completed
the full pattern. Brain Shift will confirm which players are "out," and which
player won. Brain Shift will also tell the winner how many successful shifts
they made, followed by "this game is over!"

Game 2 - Memory Shift (2-4 players)

"Remember the pattern-then shift it!" Now that you have the basics,
Brain Shift will begin to test your memory. Brain Shift will call out a player,
followed by a sequence of colors. The player must memorize the colors
then quickly shift to each color in exact order. Players will be "called" in
numerical playing order (Player 1 begins, followed by Player 2, and so forth).

Example: "Player 1--shift red, yellow, white, white. Shift!" [Player 1 shifts to red, then
yellow, then white, and then white.] "Player 2--shift green, orange, green, red. Shift!"
[Player 2 shifts to green, then orange, then green, and then red.]

Shift to the wrong color, or shift too slow, and you crash! Just as in Game
1, you are called "out" if any player that follows you successfully completes
that pattern. The game continues until only one player has successfully
completed the full pattern.

Game 3 - Who Shifts It (2-4 players)

"Remember the pattern-then shift it!" Game 3 is the same as Game 2 with
one difference-players are selected at random. Brain Shift will call out a
sequence of colors and then select the player. You cannot be sleepy when
you play Who Shifts It because you never know when it will be your turn!

Example: "Shift red, yellow, white, white. Player 2, you shift it!" [Player 2 shifts to
red, then yellow, then white, and then white.] "Shift green, orange, green, red.
Player 1, you shift it!" [Player 1 shifts to green, then orange, then green, and then red.]

You win if you are the only player who can successfully complete the pattern!
Be ready to respond or be ready to crash!

Game 4 - Ear Shift (1-4 players)

"Look and listen! Remember the location of the six sounds. Shift all six and
win!" Just when you think you are a master Brain Shifter, along comes Ear
Shift. The game begins by quickly associating a unique sound to each of
the six color lights. The sounds include a beep, a horn, a siren, a crash,
a speedway , and a screech. Pay attention! Brain Shift only goes through the
sound assignments once-as each sound is heard, the corresponding color
light will flash. Instead of telling players to shift to a specific color, Brain
Shift will emit the unique sound. Players must remember where the sound
is located and shift to that color. But that's not all! You also have to remember
the sequence of the sounds. For each new sound, you must first shift,
in correct order, to the previous sounds before shifting to the new sound.

Example: Sound assignments: Beep (red light flashes); siren (green light flashes);
screech (yellow light flashes); horn (blue light flashes); speedway (orange light

Game 5 - Secret Shift (1 player only)

"Find the secret shift pattern. You have 60 seconds to shift it or you crash!"

the next color may be. If you guess right, you will hear the "shifting gears"
sound and can move on to guess the next color. If you select an incorrect
color, you will hear the "raspberry" sound and will have to start from the
beginning, shifting back to the first color.

Example: "Start on yellow." [Player 1 shifts to yellow, then to red.] "(Raspberry
sound)." [Player 1 shifts back to yellow, then to green.] "(Shifting gears sound)."
