This is a firm family favourite I am nearly 50y and it has been around for years I have been playing it since I was about 7-8yrs.
It is a good game for both young and old.
Rules:- you have to get your four men home from a start position to a home base - this is done via movement cards ( there are no dice). Included within these cards are Sorry cards where you are able to send one of your opponents pieces back to start.
Also there are sliding bars where a person can slide along 4/5 spaces and knock off any other pieces that are on that bar returning them to start.
To get out of start you either have to get a "2" or a "1" so it is difficult to start them off sometimes.
I play this with my mum and we take charge of two colours, it makes it a little more challenging for us because otherwise it would be a bit boring and the game would be over quite quickly.
