Details

This is a board game at least 4500 years old, presumably a precursor to Backgammon. Both players have 7 stones, one red and the other green, all of which are decorated on one side in the form of a rosette. 5 spaces of the game board are also decorated with a rosette. The game is played with a die. Each player's 7 stones, with the rosette at the bottom, travel across the game board and must then be played with the rosette visible. Whoever succeeds in this first has won the game. Number of players: 2 Age: from 9 years old Content: - 1 game board - 7 green playing stones - 7 red playing stones - dice - game rules
