@LibrarianRA Was called 'Frustration' in the UK and I feel like EVERY family in the 80s had it 😄

@optimisey @LibrarianRA In our house, we had Ludo: we had to roll that die, no ‘pop-o-matic’ nonsense for us 😉

(This was in the ’70s, mind you)

@LibrarianRA

Was this just a proprietary version of Pacheesi?

@viktorbir Parcheesi is from the USA and played with 2 dice as the randomizer. Trouble has a circular rather than cross shaped path and a Pop-O-Matic die container/roller containing a single die. 😉

@LibrarianRA “Frustration” in the Uk, and played it so much the interior of the Pop-o-Matic became clouded and hard to see through.

Good memories of that; on holidays in the caravan while it rained outside, hot chocolate, and afterwards a book to read :)
