The 33 playing spaces on this example are named for virtues such as Faith, Hope and Charity, and vices such as Folly, Malice and Envy. The game would have been played with a teetotum, an early form of dice in the shape of a spinner. The players begin on the first space, the House of Correction, and the winner is the first to land on the last space: Virtue.","physicalDescription":"Design: etching, coloured by hand, 12 sections mounted on linen, showing 33 medallions.\nNo. of squares: 33\nSquares illustrated: all\nSquare numbering: all\nSquares titled: in booklet\nSubject of starting square: House of Correction\nSubject of ending square: Virtue","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Darton, William","id":"A5006"},"association":{"text":"publisher","id":"AAT25574"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"paper","id":"AAT14109"},{"text":"linen (material)","id":"AAT14069"}],"techniques":[{"text":"printing","id":"AAT53319"},{"text":"hand colouring","id":"AAT133555"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Hand coloured paper on linen","categories":[{"text":"Games","id":"THES48947"},{"text":"Games (puzzles & board games)","id":"THES274377"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"YVA","id":"THES48593"},"images":["2006AU6884"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"SHLN","id":"THES49063"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"board game","id":"AAT217912"}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"London","id":"x28980"},"association":{"text":"published","id":"x30682"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"1818","earliest":"1818-01-01","latest":"1818-12-31"},"association":{"text":"published","id":"x30682"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[{"object":{"text":"E.1770-1954","id":"O26313"},"association":""}],"creditLine":"Given by Mrs E.

IT IS DESIGNED WITH A VIEW TO PROMOTE THE PROGRESSIVE IMPROVEMENT OF THE JUVENILE MIND, AND TO DETER THEM FROM PURSUING THE DANGEROUS PATHS OF VICE.  BY T NEWTON LONDON: PRINTED BY W DARTON JUN 58 HOLBORN HILL 1818\n(Also with an advertisement for the publishing of The Mansion of Bliss by T Newton, published by Darton).\n\nRULES FOR PLAYING\n1.  This game is played with a tetotum (spelling) marked 1,2,3,4; and any number of persons, from two to twelve, may partake of it.\nII.  Each player must be provided with twelve counters and a mark; each mark varying in colour, that every one may know their own.\nIII.  Each player must put four counters into the bank before the game be commenced.\nIV.  When it has been agreed who shall begin the game, the first person, having spun the Tetotum, must place his mark upon the number corresponding with that the Tetotum presents uppermost.  If a 3 be spun, he must place his mark upon Hypocrisy, which directs him to forfeit two counters into the bank and one to each player.  When it comes to his turn to spin again, and a 2 turn up, he must then place his mark upon Folly, and act as the rule No. 5 directs.  The mark must be placed as many steps forward as the Tetotum represents.\nV.  If any player should turn to a number which sends him back to another, he must not suffer as that figure directs; viz. Falsehood is sent to the Stocks, and must remain there, whilst every other player turns three times; but he must pay any attention to the rule Stocks represent.\nVI.  If any player should turn up a number which would carry him beyond Virtue as many numbers as he turns beyond it, he must go back from the figure he last turned from viz. if his mark be on Temperance, and he should turn up a 4, he would turn one beyond Virtue, he must then place his mark back upon Falsehood, and remain till his turn come again.\n\nDIRECTIONS\n1.
