£950
In stock
A game of geographical knowledge, with cards representing countries, with facts to be remembered: what part of the world the countrries are in; what are their capitals; and where they are on the map. There are 17 cards for Europe, eight for Asia, seven for Africa, twelve for America, and a final card for the Poles, Australia and New Zealand.
The missing card is Portugal, although the game can still be played.
The date we have given for the game is on the map.
