[LARGE DIAGRAM OF AN 11 x 11 GRID BOARD. POPULATED WITH 20 BLACK DOTS IN A SORT-OF HASH TAG (#) FORMATION, AND 9 RED DOTS IN A CROSS FORMATION. 3 SPACES CONTAINING DOTS ARE ALSO MARKED WITH AN (A). 2 SPACES MARKED WITH DOTS ARE ALSO MARKED WITH AN (X). BELOW THE DIAGRAM ('PLAYER A') IS WRITTEN] <br>
BB & I to Barrett, the sculptor's studio. Alice <br>
& Felicia there. Saw <u>CONTINUUM</u>. Played on a board <br>
as shown. [IN DIAGRAM] Each player <br>
has 8 eight animal cubes <br>
which on top has an identifying <br>
color to show its <br>
ownership (2 to 4 can play). <br>
The 4 faces show, on half <br>
the cubes, the bodies of <br>
4 different animals (only <br>
two on any one cube) and <br>
on the other half, the heads. <br>
Arrangement is something <br>
like the following, the arrow <br>
showing the facing of the <br>
animal part. <br>
[SMALL DIAGRAM OF FOUR SQUARES (CUBE FACES) WITH FOUR ARROWS SHOWING ON EACH ONE.  <br>
UNDERNEATH IT IS LABELED:] 
One set of heads & one <br>
of bodies for each player. <br>
Players in turn place a cube <br>
on the board. A body must <br>
be placed before a head. <br>
A body must be placed in a red <br>
space and only in the center  <br>
of the board facing the <br>
player. Thus player A could only use 1 of the 5 red spaces <br>
1 of which is marked with an (A). A head could then be placed <br>
in a succeeding turn at one of the black spaces marked <br>
(A). This completes an animal. Some spaces are set up so that a <br>
player can add a head to a body put down by another <br>
player. If a player does this he may, if he wishes, remove the body <br>
of the other player, capturing it, and put down a proper matching <br>
body in its place. Play until no player has a space to put a  <br>
cube. Score for each completed animal (10 points - I think). <br>
