Angol leírás

Do you have the nerve, the skill and the derring-do to challenge the wind and play PERIL OF THE POLE?

This is a board game which comes with Philip Pullman's book "Once Upon a Time in the North", the fifth book in the His Dark Materials series.
The board game is kept in a tuck pocket inside the back cover. It includes a board with printed instructions on the reverse, and a card which contains a Wind Compass and 6 player Balloon tokens.

It is a simple Roll-and-Move Children's game depicting competing aeronaughts seeking to survive the longest in the North Pole; the winner is decided by the last player not destroyed in the Polar Maelstrom. The game requires a Die which is not included. The Wind Compass is used to decide which direction the player's Balloon moves to when it lands on an appropriate space.

The game is a presented in an antique style in keeping with the general design of the period depicted in the books.
