摘要

A game comprised of a game board with a plurality of squares and a plurality of query cards for each square. The squares are equally divided amongst four playing positions, with a plurality of these squares at each playing position being one color and a plurality of them being another color with the squares of the same color being grouped together at each playing position. Each square has one number in it which corresponds with the number totals likely to occur with the roll of a pair of dice with a plurality of the number being duplicated in squares of both colors. One set of squares besides having a number in them also have subject titles in them. Each player in turn, rolls a pair of dice and the total of the dots facing up on the dice indicates the square on which the player is to place a chip and the score to be obtained in accordance with scoring instructions printed on the query card if the question is answered correctly by the player. Play proceeds until a player attains a score equal to the result obtained when the year 1863 is subtracted from the current year.
