Crokinole

Crokinole is a Canadian game invented in the 1870s. Points are scored by flicking disks as near to the central hole as possible. The added twist that makes the game so engrossing is that your disk must move the disk last flicked by your opponent.

Children's Crokinole

This is a smaller sized Crokinole game made by Jaques. The dimensions are 70 x 70 x 4cm (27 x 27 x 1.5 inches) and the game comes with 30 stained wooden disks.

Please note that this is not a full-size board - the playing surface is 60cm diameter and of course, it lacks the beautiful feel of a genuine hand-made game. The surface is not perfectly smooth but the disks slide nicely without powder so it's an excellent starter game for those on a budget.
