Chutzpah by Wha-Cha-Ma-Call-It / Middle Earth"Chutzpah" is definitely a strange --- and funny! --- Yiddish game. Here is the stated object of the game ... "When you get married, you start up the road to the good life. You begin with a kniple of wedding presents, and try to get more gelt, and acquire possessions. If a player has mazel, and chutzpah, and a rich Father-in-law, his gelt and possessions will increase. If he is a shlemiel or a shlemazel, he will have nothing but tsoris!" Wow, is that "Chutzpah"?

Game components include : Gameboard, 21 Chutzpah cards, 21 Shlemiel cards, 21 You Want To Take A Gamble? cards, 21 Shlemazel cards, 24 Possession cards, 8 Playing pieces, Gelt (play money) & 4-page Instructions w/ Glossary.

Two to six players. Ages 8 & up. What-Cha-Ma-Call-It Inc. / Middle Earth Co. from 1967.

There is some evidence that What-Cha-Ma-Call-It published a second game called "Take It Off" in 1969. If you have more information, please contact me at .
