can anyone tell me the name of the '70's/80's board game that was a similar game to "frustration" but had little cone shaped playing pieces that allowed you to "huff" your opponent.

Was it Headache?

I'm thinking of 'Coppit' from the back of my seriously tired mind ... ?

I've still got my copy of HEADACHE! Yes, it is very similar to frustration, it's got the pop-o-matic in the middle of the board. When your coloured cone lands on someone elses then they lose their piece and you end up moving two cones round the board, you can have a hugh stack at the end of the game!

Ooh, remember Frustration, it had that cool popper thing in the centre!
Ah the memories!

The game was originally launched in as "Trouble". Later, the name "Frustration" was used. In Finland, the game is called Kimble.

A similar game entitled "Headache" was produced by the Milton Bradley corporation, but never reached the same level of success as Trouble.

I think in the UK 'Trouble' might be the one, although those cone shaped widgets are sooo 80's!
