Goddesses Knowledge Cards�: Paintings by Susan Seddon Boulet

by Michael Babcock, Susan Seddon Boulet (Painter)

The Original Pocket Farkel Miniature Set can truly fit in your pocket. The game tube measures about the size of a film canister. It includes 6 miniature dice and game instructions. Pocket Farkel is a fun, fast-paced, high-scoring game that takes just two minutes to learn. You roll six dice, remove only the dice you want to use for points, then re-roll the remaining dice. Some scoring dice must be removed after every roll. If you can eventually make all six dice count for score, pick them all up and keep going. If none of the dice you roll count for score, you lose your turn and any points you made during that turn. The first player to score more than 10,000 points, wins. For 2 or More players. Ages 5 and up. Please note dice color may vary, and specific color selection is not available.

Mostly Greek, Roman, Celtic, pagan, and ancient world deities, there are some American Indian, Central American and Chinese thrown in with some Welsh ones, including Arthurian figures Morgan Le Fay. The Bible gives up Eve, Mary and even Lilith. The text is cursory, more like captions really, but more descriptive and even depictive than the paintings, which are diffuse and elfin being insufficiently diverse (i.e., formulaic) let along hardly telegraphing the goddess' mien and dimension.,
