Description
A simple game, a little like Snakes and Ladders. Not politically correct now. You race your coloured (and named!) donkey up the game board from 1 to 100. The board portrays a donkey being chased by a stereo-typed Black Maid. No skill whatever required, progress is purely random. Slightly notable for the dice; there are four, each of which has the name of 2 of the donkeys twice and two of them once, so each donkey name occurs 6 times over the four dice.
