In this classic and original edition of the Game of Goose, players are transported back to the nostalgic atmosphere of their childhoods. This edition faithfully replicates the beloved board game that has entertained families for generations, the very same one your grandmother might have enjoyed in her youth.
The origins of the Game of Goose remain shrouded in mystery, with the earliest known references dating back to 1480. It was in 1574 when Francesco de Medici presented a version of the game to Philip II of Spain, marking one of its earliest documented versions.
As a game of pure chance, the Game of Goose levels the playing field between children and adults, allowing all participants to compete on equal footing. Its simple yet engaging rules have cemented its place as a family favorite across the globe.
One of the key rules involves the handling of dice rolls. If a player rolls a number that exceeds the required count to reach the final square, the piece must be moved forward to the last square and then retraced backward to use up the remaining steps.
Additionally, the rule of occupancy dictates that no two players can share the same space. Should a player’s turn end on a square already occupied by an opponent, the opponent must return to the position from which the current player started their turn.
This edition of the Game of Goose supports up to four players, inviting friends and family to partake in the classic fun. The game’s charm lies in its simplicity and the delight it brings to every generation.
Gather your loved ones and embark on this timeless adventure—what are you waiting for?
