  Interesting post. I notice that many of these games have 63 squares, and a quick Googling doesn’t explain much.

  I wonder what the reason is for there being 63 squares?

  I like the Musical Toy [1811] one the best, while visually trippy it doesn’t look difficult to play [pun intended]. British Regency Karaoke, mayhap?
