Rules of the Game

To print out these rules, click on your Browser's Print Icon or select Print from a Pulldown Menu.

How to Play:

Toss the dice to see who starts; the player with the highest total begins.  Players take turns tossing two dice and moving their markers the number showing on the dice.  The players follow the rules of the board, as listed below, and try to beat the other players to the center of the board to win. 

Rules of the Board:

The Bridge on space 6 advances you to space 12.

An Inn on space 19 delays you one turn.

The Well on space 31 delays you two turns.

The Maze of space 42 confuses you and you return to space 30.

The Dungeon on space 52 keeps you locked up until another traveler lands there and takes your place, sending you to their starting place. 

Space 58 is the death space, or the cooked goose, sending you back to the beginning. 

A dice total of  9 advances you to the next dice field (spaces 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54).

You need an exact count to reach the center, space 63.  Excess moves are taken backward from the center. 

Landing on a goose (spaces 5, 14, 23, 32, 41, 50, 59) repeats your dice value, whether you are moving forward or backward from the center.
