Dancing Dolls

Working Model published 276 years ago by Clebsch, Johann Ferdinand

Impossible to emulate

Dancing Dolls © 1748 Clebsch [Johann Ferdinand Clebsch].

2-player game. Each player must put a guilder at stake to move 4 dolls from a side, and 3 from the other. Seven Twines allow to drive dolls on a board; dancing, they bump. The goal of the game is to overthrow those of his opponent who disappear into a hole. Whoever manages to keep its 3 dolls standing receives a half-guilder of the opponent.

TRIVIA

The game has disappeared, but the manual is currently in possession of the family of Count Blenheim from Pöchlarn (lower-Austria).
