TOUR DE FRANCE
France, 1950s

 

 

Old Tour de France game. No indication of maker or year of making. Probably was part of a games' compilation, but I can't really say much about it. More information welcome.

 

 

The game is played with a die, but 5 and 6 count for 4, so it makes a 123444 die. All incidents are negative (punctures, falls..) What is unusual about the rules is the fact that when you land on a square with a black circle (you are exhausted: you find these in the Pyrenees and the Alpes) you advance one square at a turn until the next white circle.

 

 

Lotsa trouble! The rules do not make clear if you get still punctures when you advance one square at a time. I hope you don't!
