This is a simple race game based on the "newest invention [that] has spread, in a very short time, all over the world." Players roll a die and move flat metal standees of various citizens (a violinist, a maid, etc.) from space to space. The scenes between the spaces depict people around the world, all of them listening to or performing for the radio. Some spaces allow players to follow radio waves, moving forward or backward as in Chutes and Ladders. The rules of the game suggest "if you are tired of listening to your radio...the game will give you a nice change." —user summary
