I've never seen the game. Then again, I remember when they invented dirt. Things sure stayed clean before then, although we didn't have many places to play a board game.
OMG yes! I totally forgot about this game. It had the clear thing with the ballbearing inside that you spun around. I think I was too young to actually have played it when we had it, but I remember bits of plastic :)
Gawd yes. There was a toy shop I used to go into in Eastbourne every summer where they sold it. But I was never allowed it.
ReplyDeleteThere was a similar game which involved dinosaurs which I did have.
