A classic puzzle game from the late 19th century, "The Number Thirteen" combines arithmetic and strategy in the form of a layout game. The goal is to create a grid of nine cards where the red numbers (horizontally) and the blue numbers (vertically) in each row or column always add up to the number 13. Each card features a maxim and a trio of numbers, adding a playful and moral dimension. An educational and entertaining game with charming graphics typical of the Belle Époque.
