Item:          Fox & Geese Scandinavian Game of Odds by Kikkerland [NEW] Traditional Board-Game

Condition:   NEW. Not sealed (wasn't sold that way)

Fox and Geese is unique in that it is a game of odds with unequal pieces and different moves for each player. Will fate favor the fox or will luck run with the geese? Play the best of 2-5 games to see who really comes out victorious.

  The rules of play for Fox and Geese are simple: one player controls the fox, while the other controls the geese. The fox can move in a straight line in any direction and, as it jumps over geese, the geese are removed from the board. To win, the fox must break through the entire line of geese. The geese are only allowed to move forward or sideways. To win, they must corner the fox so it cannot move.

The Oxford English Dictionary cites a 1633 reference to the game from a play called Fine Companion by Shackerley Marmion: “Let him sit in the shop... and let him play at fox and geese with the foreman.” The game was played in colonial America and, with minor variations, well into the 19th and 20th centuries.
