Object of the game is to be the first player to navigate by the points of the compass and reach the South Pole. Each player begins by placing their marker in the red rectangle on the various countries. Players spin a teetotum to find out which direction to travel – north, south, east or west. Players then roll the dice to move the number of spaces in the direction on the teetotum. The first player to reach the South Pole wins the game.
