Benji Game
2–6 players · 30 min · 5+
In the Benji Game, players are rolling dice to attempt to get their wooden token to the middle of the board.
Players take turns rolling two dice and moving. If they land on a square with a picture, they either take another turn, roll again, go back to the start or draw a card. The cards aid to manipulate the movement of the pieces.
The first person to reach the center of the board by exact throw is the winner.
from the Waddington ad from 1977 for the game:
"Now you have the chance to join Benji, the world's most huggable hero, in an exciting "chase" to meet Tiffany. You will try to be the first player to pass all the obstacles. The first player to meet Tiffany is the winner.
2 to 6 players ages 5 to 10
