Little Red Rooster (Live at the Felt Forum, New York City]
This mid-19th Century game is laid out like Game of Goose, with an inward spiral of 63 spaces, but it is based on the 1844 novel Le Juif-Errant (The Wandering Jew), by Eugene Sue. The starting (lower-left) corner of the board has an impage of Sue at work writing the novel. The other corners and each space on the track show a character or incident from the 1400-page book. The center of the board shows the Wandering Jew arriving in Paris, and also includes the rules.
As in Game of Goose, players make an initial ante, and may be forced to pay more into the pot as a result of landing on certain squares. The first player to reach the end of the track takes the pot.
