Ghost Blitz (also known as Geistesblitz) is a fast-paced, reaction-based card and object game designed by Jacques Zeimet and published by Zoch Verlag. The game is all about speed, perception, and quick thinking.
The game includes five wooden items:
• a white ghost,
• a green bottle,
• a gray mouse,
• a blue book, and
• a red chair.
Each round, a card is drawn showing two of these items in various colors. Players must quickly identify and grab the correct item from the table:
• If one of the objects on the card is correctly colored, grab that item.
• If none of the objects are the right color, grab the one item and color not represented on the card.
It sounds simple—but as the game speeds up, it gets tricky and hilarious! Ghost Blitz is great for families, kids, and party settings. It improves reflexes, focus, and visual processing in a fun and competitive way.

The easy way for children to learn and enjoy the game of Chess
“A stimulating game for the bright 4–12 year old, and also a challenge for any adult who wants a quick game of chess. Chess is a wonderful battle of wits and strategy in its own right but additionally serves as a perfect introduction to the mental discipline and imagination associated with chess itself.”
