Description

A trip through famous Palm Springs, California An indoor "roll & move" game based around Palm Springs, CA. From the rulebook: "Palm Springs, California - This community was selected for the setting of the Cocky Compass Game not only because it is "America's Foremost Desert Resort", packed with Western thrills and glamorous movie stars, but because here are vast deserts, and towering mountains which help to teach use of the compass." Teaches history and uses for a compass through fun games and exercises. The method for determining movement is unique in that no dice are used. Instead, the enclosed "Cocky Compass Shaker" (which has numbers 1-5 printed around the outside) is rotated while covering the top of the compass. Whichever number the Cocky Compass points to is the distance moved on the board. Also includes several outdoor group games using an enclosed compass.
