I discovered this old game board from days long gone in a dusty corner of an attic. It’s all too fitting that it takes up a fairy tale theme and embeds it in a beautifully drawn collage for a dice game.

It probably originated in the former GDR, or even earlier. Only the game board is still there and I have preserved it with the VBR and thus preserved it for the world.

The principle of the game is very simple: each player takes a turn and rolls the dice. They move their figure as many spaces as the dice shows eyes. If he reaches a special square marked by a circle, he reads the instructions on the side of the board out loud and then carries them out.

These short texts are lovingly narrated in the form of a story, always fit in thematically with the fairy tale depicted and usually move the player’s figure to other spaces on the board, have them roll the dice again or sit out a round. There are a total of 100 squares and the winner is the one who reaches the last square and leads the princess, or the prince, home.

The figures and the environment were of course not there, I added them purely for the digital version to make it a bit more attractive.
