Description
An obvious precursor to Alex Randolph's later Ciao Ciao, this game sees players moving figures back and forth over a bridge. Each player has 3 wood figures in different sizes, an officer, a lady and a robber, and there's a special die numbered 0-3. Roll the die, move a figure forward, and if it meets another on the bridge, the robber holds up the lady, the lady slaps the officer and the officer nabs the robber, sending them back to the start. Figures can only make the other side with an exact roll.
