Description
Game entitled Rules for playing Wallis's new game of the Panorama of Europe; "I. The game is played with a teetotum, which is to be marked with a pen and ink from 1 to 8. II. Each player must have a pyramid, and four counters of the same colour. III. Spin for first player, the highest number to begin. IV. Let the first player spin, and place his pyramid on the game according to the number turned up. The others in turn are to do the same, referring to the explanation for a description of the place. V. At each following spin, add the number turned up to that on which the pyramid stands, and proceed accordingly, till some one arrives at London, no. 40, who wins the game. VI. Whoever goes beyond no. 40, shall go back as many as he exceeds it, and try again when his turn comes. VII. When directed to stop one or more turns, the player is to place so many counters on his number, and take one up each time, instead of spinning, till all are redeemed. VIII. Whenever a player arrives at a Capital City, he has the privilege of reckoning his spin twice over, except directed to stop there". All 40 towns are commentated; Panorama of Europe; Image 3
