Description
A simple roll and move educational game teaching currency conversion from pounds/pence to decimal Australian dollars and cents. Australia changed over to decimalization in 1966.
By the roll of a dice players move along playing squares that have a money value up to 100 cents. Certain squares are red or green and when a player lands on these squares they must do a conversion from pence to cents. Correct conversion will see the player on a green square advance the cent value but on a red square go back the cent value. If the conversion is incorrect the player can go back to the start. First to reach 100 cents by exact throw is the winner.
