Box of 4 TRADITIONAL GAMES from the Canary Islands

The Canary Islands Game Box: Canarian Baraja, Boliches, Trompo, and Chinos!

Four classics that pay homage to childhood and bridge the gap between generations, a testament to the islands' traditions.

This box of traditional games will transport us back to our childhood, playing as a family with the spinning top, boliches, Canarian deck of cards, and Chinos. We'll share incredible moments with all our family and friends.

Four classics that pay homage to childhood and playful memories: boliches, Chinos, trompo, and Canarian Baraja. Each game occupies its own space within a case designed to evoke the everyday and the timeless. This set not only guarantees hours of entertainment: it bridges the gap between generations, a testament to how the game has endured with its essential elements.

The Canarian deck: 4 suits, 12 face cards, and references to the islands on each card.
Each piece has its own story, with its name and explanation, whether of legendary or historical origin. We've incorporated a QR code that offers detailed information about these characters and, in addition, we've added some of the most popular card games in the Canary Islands, such as Envite (the challenge) or Ronda Robada (the stolen round).

Chinos is a strategy game that involves trying to guess the total number of pieces held in a closed hand by several players (at least two). Three coins are used per player, and 0, 1, 2, or 3 coins can be drawn. The game is typically used as a fortune-telling game.

The rules for exiting and progressing the game are agreed upon by all players, so games can be played to the drop (the winner folds until only one loser remains), to a score of 3 (the winner folds until only one loser remains), etc.

In each round, each player secretly holds between zero and three coins in their hand, which they then show closed to the other players, with their arm stretched out in front of them. Then, each player takes a turn saying a number, trying to guess the total number of coins in each hand. A number already said by another player cannot be repeated. The hands are then opened and it is determined who guessed correctly, and the next round begins.

Bowls are those little glass balls we all played with at recess, in the park, or on the street. They sparkle in the light, come in a thousand colors and sizes, and are as simple as they are brilliant. They don't break and never get boring. They're a piece of childhood in your pocket.

How to play?

Make a small circle on the ground (with chalk or a stick in the ground), and place several balls inside. Each player uses their largest ball, called the "shooter," to knock the others out of the circle. Whoever knocks out the most wins! All you need is good aim, a steady hand, and a desire to have fun.

For the spinning top, wind the string from the end up, leaving a little slack at the end. Then, grab it firmly, throw the top to the ground with a quick tug, and... spin! You can make it spin still or even learn tricks like lifting it with your hand. Ideal for children, parents, grandparents, and all nostalgic people who want to unwind for a while with something simple and fun.
