About this game

Each of the 52 spaces around edges of this Parchisi-style board is numbered and labelled with the name and national flag of a city on the path to liberation. The outer path is linear neither in terms of date or location. The flags show 17 French spaces, 12 Russian and 10 Italian, along with two each from the U.K. and Belgium, and one each in Poland, Romania, Greece, Yugoslavia and Estonia. Playing pieces are wooden castles topped with national flags.

Mechanism

Roll and Move

Rules

The playing pieces start from the lowest-numbered space beside their corner, proceed clockwise all the way around the outside of the board, and then up an alley from their national flag toward Berlin in the middle of the board. First to reach Berlin wins.
