Curling board game Lucrum Games

An Olympic game on your table!

“Curling” board game is an arcade version of the Olympic game that takes place in your home. In “Curling”, teams play (i.e. push) their stones along the mat so that they are as close as possible to the target (i.e. the tricoloured circle we will call home). The game lasts 8 rounds and ends with the team that scores the most points winning.

In Poland, Curling is not one of the most popular sports, but surely everyone is at least familiar with the ‘brushes’ and ‘kettlebells’ that are used during the game. The mini version of the game will be perfect as a companion to any party or family gathering, and even two players will generate a lot of positive emotions and a thrill of competition. Our board version of the game has been organised under the auspices of the Polish Federation of Curling Clubs.

A bit of history

The first confirmed references to Curling date back to the early 16th century. The game most likely originated in Scotland, and owes its name to the Scottish wordcurrwhich means hustle and is a reference to the sound of a stone scraping across the ice.

Also included in the box is a second version of the instructions for the lesser-known Shuffleboard game, the origin of which is shrouded in mystery. What we know for sure is that Shuffleboard was played as early as the 16th century by King Henry VIII of England, who later banned the pastime among his people. Today, this game uses plastic discs, playing matches on a hard (usually concrete or wooden) surface.
