The Game of Cootie (original) (raw)
The Game of Cootie is a children's dice rolling and set collection tabletop game for two to four players. The object is to be the first to build a three-dimensional bug-like object called a "cootie" from a variety of plastic body parts. Created by William Schaper in 1948 and based on the traditional dice game Beetle, the game was launched in 1949 and was commercially successful, with copies totalling more than one million in the first few years. In 1973, Cootie was acquired by Tyco Toys, and, in 1986, by Hasbro subsidiary Milton Bradley. The game was given a new look and continued to enjoy commercial success. Several companies published cootie games in the first half of the twentieth century, but only Schaper's featured a free-standing, three-dimensional cootie. In 2003, Cootie was named t

| dbo:abstract | The Game of Cootie is a children's dice rolling and set collection tabletop game for two to four players. The object is to be the first to build a three-dimensional bug-like object called a "cootie" from a variety of plastic body parts. Created by William Schaper in 1948 and based on the traditional dice game Beetle, the game was launched in 1949 and was commercially successful, with copies totalling more than one million in the first few years. In 1973, Cootie was acquired by Tyco Toys, and, in 1986, by Hasbro subsidiary Milton Bradley. The game was given a new look and continued to enjoy commercial success. Several companies published cootie games in the first half of the twentieth century, but only Schaper's featured a free-standing, three-dimensional cootie. In 2003, Cootie was named to the Toy Industry Association's "Century of Toys List". (en) Lusen är ett tärningsspel, där deltagarna med hjälp av olika tärningskast ska bygga ihop lösa delar till ett föremål i plast, föreställande en fantasifullt utformad insekt. Varje sida på tärningen motsvarar en anatomisk beståndsdel. Vanligtvis gäller följande schema: 1:a = kroppen. 2:a = huvudet, 3:a = en antenn, 4:a = ett öga, 5:a = snabeln (även kallad munnen), 6:a = ett ben. Man måste kasta en 1:a (kroppen) för att kunna påbörja bygget, och därefter en 2:a (huvudet). Övriga delar får sättas på plats i vilken ordning som helst. Man får fortsätta att kasta tärningen så länge som kasten ger användbara kroppsdelar, och därefter går turen vidare till nästa spelare. Vinnare är den som först lyckats få ihop en färdigbyggd lus. Spelet, som i original heter cootie, lanserades 1949 i USA och började tillverkas på licens i Sverige 1952. Spelidén är baserad på äldre sällskapsspel, spelade med papper och penna. Ett exempel på ett spel av denna typ är skalbaggen, i vilket deltagarna efter tärningens anvisningar ritar bit för bit av varsin skalbagge på ett papper. (sv) |
