The Game of Capitals

2–5 players · 30 min

This old Parker Brothers game was designed to teach players the capitals of the world. On a turn, you simply draw a card and read the question to the player to your left, such as "Of what country is Vienna the capital?" If the question is answered correctly, the player keeps the card. Each card has a point value depending on how obscure the country is. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
