    Description

    A game in the tradition of Happy Families but this has sets in varying numbers of cards. I expect parents saw an educational value in the game and they were right to do so.

    There are 9 sets in all, each giving examples of a type of measure. The sets range from 3 cards to 7 cards. In your turn, you may ask any other player for a card in one set but you must have at least one card from that set in your hand. If you complete a set, lay it in front of you. When all the sets have been collected, the player who has most in front of him, wins.

    The nine sets are:
    Cubic Measure
    Troy Weight
    Apothecaries' Weight
    Dry Measure
    Measure of Time
    Long Measure
    Square Measure
    Avoirdupois Weight
    Money Table
