	descrizione:	Gioco di 63 caselle numerate REGOLE: in basso. CASELLE: mute. REFERENZA 1 Game 4: New Improved Goose Game. (Nuremberg, Germany: Campe). Neues verbessertes Gänse-Spiel. Nürnberg: Fr[iedrich] Nap[oleon] Campe [active 1813–37]. Hand-colored lithograph, 37 x 28.5 cm. Ref.: Ciompi/Seville 1359. Though at first glance this New improved Goose game appears to be of the classic form, it does in fact incorporate several variations. The game has indeed the canonical 63-space track but there is only a single series of geese, on spaces 9, 18, 27... The most interesting variation is that the action on landing on a goose space depends on whether the image of the goose is facing forwards or backwards along the track. If forwards, then the usual goose-doubling rule applies; if backwards, then the player must go back from the goose to where the throw was taken from, i.e., there is no net movement. The rules for the hazard spaces, which are placed as usual, are as for the classic game but the iconography differs. For example, the bridge at 6 becomes a goat, while the inn at 19 becomes a cornucopia. German Goose games show a much greater divergence from classic form than do Italian or French versions of comparable date. The forwards-backwards goose rule seems to have been a German invention of the 18th century, earlier German games being entirely consistent with the classic form. This rule is also encountered as a “local” rule in the Low Countries, where by agreement of the players it may or may not be in effect. However, the German games, as in this example, are often explicit about the rule. (Adrian Seville) Exhibitions: - "The Royal Game of the Goose four hundred years of printed Board Games".
