Bank-Letterspel (1975)

Promotional game for the Dutch bank Raiffeisenbank and this is The Bank Letter Game. Simple crossword card game, similar to games like Lexicon and Kan-U-Go. In your turn you may play a maximum of 4 cards. Words must be formed that use at least one letter of an existing word (except for the first word obviously which, incidentally, must be a four letter word). Any word can be extended though, if possible. Game includes two Jokers which have an image of an old motor car. The first player to use all his cards wins the round. The other players total the values of their unused cards and the winner of the round scores a total of all those points (each card has a number value on it). The winner of the game is the first player to reach a pre-agreed score. The backs of the cards are quite novel. They form one of four different pictures. It is suggested that 6 to 8 year olds might like to do the jigsaws. I doubt it, they are extremely difficult for their size.
