“Elastic table” or “Passe-trappe” game

This game belongs to the range of traditional wooden games.

Like many games of this kind, its origin remains uncertain, but it is thought to date back to the 18th century. The elastic bands were then made of cat gut, which becomes elastic when moistened.

This game is made of beech (pucks and board) and oak (edges). Naturally, to spare our four-legged friends, the elastic bands are modern…

Size: 92 x 43 cm, but can be made in any size.

Can be stained and/or waxed.

Rules:
Each player places their pucks wherever they like in their own half, except in front of the gap.
Both players play at the same time.
The aim of the game is to send all the pucks from your half into the opponent’s half as quickly as possible.
The pucks may only be propelled with the elastic bands.

The winner is the first player to clear all the pucks from their half.
