Cronkinole
In 1857 John Jaques II introduced the new table game of "squails". The idea of squails was simply to flick 8 wooden disks to the centrer of the board. Developed from this game and bizarrely taking some of the features from Jaques most popular game Croquet, Cronkinole was born. Simplistically the aim is to score more points than your opponents by getting as many of your discs in scoring positions, with the ultimate aim of flicking your discs into the hole in the middle. As with similar games, there is a strategic element with Cronkinole, and there are many cunning tactics which can be adopted by the players - be it to utilise the posts in the middle of the board, or to cannon your opponents discs into the ditch on the side of the quadrant. This is a fine hand skill game combing all of the fin of tiddlywinks, croquet and bowls. Cracking fun!Contents:1 x Frame, constructed from polished solid mahogany. 1 x Complete set od all pieces required for playing the game.
