Description

This Dutch cycling game from 1965 was enclosed in the Dutch weekly magazine, called Revue. The gameboard, which is made from glossy magazine paper, has a 'board' of 38 x 35 cm. The game also contains several tokens, which you had to cut out from the magazine. There is a green and yellow jersey, the polkadot mountain jersey, a tour-caravan token and several 1 to 3 peaked mountain tokens. You need also a die and a number of chips or matches, whatever you like. The paper gameboard has the Tour de France route of 1965 printed on it. At the start, every player gets some chips as starting money. After a stage is finished, the tour caravan pawn moves to the next stage. Every stage has a number printed on, this is important for the dice rolling. You need to roll that number for winning the stage. Since this fame is purely based on dice rolling, the rules are very simple. You can earn or lose chips depending on how the dice rolls. The game ends when the tour caravan reaches the final stage in Paris. The player who has the most chips at this point wins the game.
