Description
The name Barbacan comes from the old Spanish, which means fortress or fort. It is clear from the game that it is a siege game. According to ancient sources, it originates from the Moors, the North African Berber tribes who were Islamised by the Arabs in the 7th century. The Moors were instrumental in the conquest of the Iberian Peninsula by the Arabs. The playing field is not just an ornament, but also a carefully thought-out fortress system.
The special feature of the game is that - unlike other siege games - there are no defenders. Each of the players is an attacker and endeavours to penetrate the fortress and prevent the opposing attackers from doing so at the same time. Observation, tactics and fighting skills are decisive in this game.
This old Moorish game not only impresses with its extraordinary visuals. A lot of strategy is also required here, as the aim is to conquer a fortress and place your own pieces so skilfully that you block your opponent(s).
The number of pieces used varies depending on the number of players.
The game material includes: 12 + 12 + 8 + 6 + 5 + 4 pieces.


Our board games are burnt onto leather, making them durable. And the game almost packs itself for transport. The only thing you have to do is press the game down slightly with one finger in the centre of the playing field, pull the string and the game has already packed itself. It should stay that way for transport. So all you have to do now is push the bead up to the bag that has just formed and the game is packed ready for travelling. The games can be used in this way on hikes, on bike tours, in the car or even on long flights. The games are packed so small that the pocket of a jacket is sufficient to take this pleasant form of entertainment with you.

historical board game Armenian mill on a dark brown leather playing field with black and white playing pieces
Twelve Men`s Morris or Armenian Morris
This ancient game has probably been known in Europe for over 4000 years. Finds have been documented from around 2000 BC in Ireland, for example. This makes the mill game not only one of the oldest known board games, but also older than the world-famous game of chess. However, many people don't realise this: There are numerous variations of the mill game, e.g. this Armenian mill has additional diagonals and each of the two players is given 12 pieces at the start of the game.

House of Fortune
House of fortune is an old southern German game that probably dates back to the 15th century. At the time of the Landsknechte, many a warrior lost his pay playing this game. Gambling was forbidden at the time, which is why people met in secret. It is said that the owner of the game board made an agreement with the captain of the mercenaries: at a secret signal, the latter would enter the illegal players' tent at the time when there was as much money as possible on the board. To avoid being caught, the game and the money had to disappear quickly. The other players had to make a quick getaway and nobody could claim their coins. The captain was given a share of the spoils.

roman morris with game pieces
Three Men´s Morris
This smallest version of the well-known mill game was already known thousands of years ago, as numerous finds prove. For example, a round mill playing field was discovered on the roof of the temple of Kurna (built around 1400 BC). However, the playing field may also have been carved into the roof stone at a later date. The game seems to have been very popular among all social classes, especially among the Romans.
