The Game of Bamboozle or the Enchanted Isle
1876
Designed by (Uncredited)
Published by Milton Bradley
This was one of the first large folding board games produced by Milton Bradley. Game board has a wonderfully lithographed fantasy land where one takes paths to get to the Enchanted Isle. The center of the board has two castle, woods, bears, a tent, a windmill and a church. The paths weave along the outside and into the center. The paths along the outside represent water and has pictures of a steamboat, canoeist, serpent, and whale. The four corners of board are one city scene, one house scene, one mermaid and one lighthouse. This particular version, with a plain box (likely considered "deluxe" at that time) is later than the first 1876 version, which probably featured a more decorative printed image on the box cover. This version probably dates from around 1900.
