Description
As seen on the shelves of Sophie, the Countess of Wessex, this fun board game would be right at home for any royal (or not!) game night.
MAPOMINOES UNITED KINGDOM is the fun card game that takes you all around the UK! This portable card game is fun, easy to learn, educational and highly addictive and makes a great present for any family member interested in geography or travel. It’s like dominoes but with maps, as you build a map of the United Kingdom, by connecting counties that share a common border. Stay one step ahead of your opponents, as you race to be the first player to play all your county cards on the table and win the game. Block access to the Scottish Borders by holding on to Northumberland or Cumbria or open up Wales by playing Powys. Take a boat through the Irish Sea to Northern Ireland or transit by train through Surrey to Hampshire or Berkshire. Try not to get cut off in Cornwall, stuck on Shetland or isolated on the Isle of Anglesey, as the county cards spread across the table. The excitement builds as you have fewer and fewer cards left to play, but less space to play them in as you reach the table’s edge! Every county card is different and hence no two games are ever the same in this clever game that you will want to play again and again. A simple game with hidden strategic depth that gives it broad appeal to both children and adults. No geography knowledge required, but you learn the counties of Great Britain & Northern Ireland as you play.
