Description

Another board that houses two games: Dai Hasami Shogi is a game in which both opponents want to capture the other's pieces. The pieces are removed from the board one piece at a time by carefully placing them strategically and then moving them. Dai Hasami Shogi is a Japanese board game that is played on a regular chessboard (chess = Japanese shogi). The game of chess apparently came to Japan in the 8th century, since when it has developed significantly and only resembles the chess commonly played in Europe today in some respects.
The smaller version of Go can also be played on this board. As the playing field only has 9 x 9 squares, the game is played with 81 pieces rather than 361. In Go, players use their own pieces to demarcate areas in order to conquer them and capture opposing pieces.

Our board games are burnt onto leather, making them durable. And the game almost packs itself for transport. All 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 packed itself away. 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.

cows and leopards, The leopard game

The "leopard game" has been widely played in South Asia for many centuries. At first, one suspects an imbalance in the game, as there are only two leopards but 24 cows. However, the strategic skills of both players are required to emerge victorious from the game. The game "Alquerque" can also be played on this board. That's why we include the instructions. So again 2 games in one.

Backgammon

Much is still unknown about the origin, age and spread of this game. There are some oriental games that are thousands of years old and parallels to backgammon are often sought, but whether this proves a relationship is questionable. Probably the first close relative of modern backgammon is the Roman Ludus duodecim scriptorum. It was widespread throughout the Roman Empire and was first mentioned by Ovid in the 8th century BC. However, the first discovery is dated to around 125 AD. The game was then further developed by the Romans into alea or tabula, which could have been played as early as the 1st century AD. From the 11th century onwards, the game spread throughout Europe and became known in Germany in the 12th century under the name Wurfzabel or Puff. The name Puff is derived from the word Pasch. The vulgar term for the brothel goes back to the name of the game that used to be played in these houses - so you went ‘to the brothel’.

Fanorona

Fanorona is one of the games of the Alquerque family, which have been played in Egypt and the Middle East for over 3000 years. This game probably originated in Madagascar in the 17th century. It is still traditionally played in Madagascar, where it is pronounced "fanurn". Conveniently, Alquerque can also be played on this board. (The instructions are of course included.) Fanorona fascinates with a striking technique that seems unusual for us Central Europeans. The aim is to capture all your opponent's pieces.

Latrunculi, ludus latrunculorum

As we know from war reports, the battlefield is empty at the beginning. The soldiers on both sides stand and wait for the signal to attack. The signal is given. The two players now take it in turns to place a piece on the board. By placing your own pieces skilfully and carefully, you can also capture your opponent's pieces in this phase of the game. Once all the soldiers (pieces) are on the board, one soldier goes and each player tries to capture the other's pieces by skilfully placing them in order to emerge victorious.
The ludus latrunculorum, or latrunculi for short, is often referred to as a soldier's game, as the name is derived from latro for soldier.
Ovid( born 22 March 43 BC in Sulmo; died probably 17 AD in Tomis), a Roman poet who was also a war correspondent, frequently mentioned this game in his works, for example in ‘Art of Love III’.
It is also possible to play the large version of the game ‘Kono’ on this board. The instructions for this are of course included.
