You and your friends are staring at a clock, armed with nothing but twelve face-down cards and the fragile hope that you understood each other on the BGA chat. That's Take Time, nominated for and recommended for several awards, and it's going to test you and whoever you’re playing with in the best possible way.
Take Time is a cooperative game where players work together to pass various tests, and win or lose as a team. To succeed, you must strategically play twelve cards face-down around a clock, following the special rules given for each test. The twist? Once you pick up your cards, you can't write or say another word. Nothing but the raw placement of a card to say "trust me" or "I've got this." It's communication stripped down to its purest, most nerve-wracking form.
For your first game, start simple. Clock 1, Chapter 1. Nail it, move to the next. Clear all four clocks in a chapter, and the next one's waiting for you.
And if you fail? That's not the end, that's the story getting good. Sit back, talk through what went wrong, figure out what you'd do differently, and go again. The best teams aren't the ones who never fail, they're the ones who come up with a better solution.
Working through the various tests is a learning process, and it can take time (bad pun intended). You'll need to know when to push through and when to step back. This means learning when it's worth retrying a failed test, and when it's better to skip it and move on. Above all, be patient. With yourselves. And with each other. In the end, you might surprise yourself with how much progress you make.
Whether you're racing through "Awakening" or chasing the mysteries of "Rebirth," Take Time rewards patience, intuition, and the quiet magic of a team that just gets it.

Let’s take a minute to thank Alexi Piovesan and Julien Prothière, the game designers, as well as the good folks from Libellud for gracing us with their game. Let’s also salute the work and effort from dharf and BoucleMed for their port on BGA.
This was your Wednesday release.
Take time to enjoy this wonderous journey from start to finish! Take care and play fair…
掌握時刻：連時間都在考驗你！
你和你的朋友們正凝視著一座時鐘，手上除了十二張牌面朝下的卡牌，以及寄託在BGA聊天室裡「希望彼此真有默契」的渺茫期盼外，一無所有。這就是榮獲多項大獎提名與推薦的《掌握時刻》，它將以最棒的方式，全力考驗你以及和你一同遊玩的夥伴。
《掌握時刻》是一款合作遊戲，玩家需要攜手合作通過各種考驗，並以團隊的形式共存亡。為了獲得成功，你必須策略性地將十二張卡牌面朝下圍繞著時鐘擺放，並遵循各項考驗所指定的特殊規則。而最刺激的轉折在於——只要你拿起卡牌，就再也不能寫字或說出任何一個字。除了純粹的牌面放置之外，你沒有其他方式能對同伴表達「相信我」或「交給我吧」。這是將溝通精簡至最純粹、卻也最扣人心弦的極致形式。
你的第一場遊戲，就從簡單的開始吧。第一章的第一個時鐘挑戰，拿下它，然後前往下一關。只要通關一個章節中的全部四個時鐘，下一章的挑戰就在等著你了。
而如果失敗了呢？那可不是終點，而是故事正要開始精彩起來！坐下來，好好聊聊哪裡出了問題、琢磨一下該如何調整，然後重新再來一局。最頂尖的團隊不是從不失敗的團隊，而是能一起找出更好解法的團隊。
闖過各項考驗是一個學習的過程，而且這可能需要「掌握時刻」。你需要知道何時該全力衝刺，何時該退後一步。這意味著要學會分辨：什麼時候值得重新挑戰失敗的考驗，什麼時候最好直接跳過並繼續前進。最重要的是，要有耐心。對自己有耐心，對彼此也是。 到最後，你可能會對自己所取得的進步感到驚喜不已。
無論你是在「覺醒」中奮力疾馳，還是在追尋「重生」的奧秘，《掌握時刻》 都會獎勵耐心、直覺，以及一支心照不宣的團隊所展現的默契魔法。
