Hello everyone!
Games of chance
Game of even or odd. We take a certain number of knucklebones in our hand and hand them to another player and ask them "even or odd". If they guess, they win the knucklebones that are in the hand of the one who asked them the question. If they don't guess, they must give as many knucklebones as the one who asked them the question and must give them to them.
The game of heads or tails. It was played as we still play it today. The Greeks used day and night for the white or black side. The Romans said head or ship.
The game of mourre. The two players stand face to face and then extend their right hand, announcing a number and assuming the sum announced by the two players. You must then try to estimate the number of fingers that the opponent will raise to try to find the sum of all the fingers of the two players. The winner is the one who has won 5 shots, that is to say who has found the right number 5 times. The points won are counted with the left hand. It was also used to determine who will start playing.
The game of the wound belt. Puzzle to take apart and put back together to win. The Greeks used it to consult fate. It is a double belt that was wound and it was necessary to succeed in undoing them. It represents the work of each day that the people must accomplish.
The game of the bronze coin. We take a bronze coin that we spin on its edge then we try to stop it with our finger in a single attempt and before it falls back on the table or on the ground. We had to succeed in stopping it on its edge.
Have a good day and good game ;)
