Books of the 1970’s, here in the Spanish version, when the novelties came across the border.
Books with history, with stories and games.
Firstly, some handwork, with scissors, cardboard, glue and colour crayons. Detach the centre pages, containing the rules and parts; cut the pieces; stick them on cardboard, or assemble them, if required; add a bit of color, to give an extra ambiance; and even, in some cases, laminating, to protect from wear.
Afterwards, the rules, a single sheet of paper, always simple but diverse.
And then: play! In different episodes of history, different geographies or even futuristic scenarios.
