Master the art of the sequence with this original 1968 edition of "Five Straight" by Five Straight Company. A sophisticated addition to the playhouse collection, this pegboard strategy game challenges players to be the first to place five pegs in a row while navigating a numbered grid. This set is remarkably complete, featuring the two-piece game board, the full deck of 100 cards, and three sets of vibrant plastic pegs in pink, yellow, and green.
The gameplay combines the tactical depth of chess with the accessibility of a classic card game, making it a wonderful find for collectors of mid-century board games. The components remain in very good condition, including the original instruction sheet which outlines the competitive peg-placing rules. While the box displays some authentic shelf wear and scuffing consistent with its age, it remains structurally sound and serves as a great visual piece for a vintage game shelf. This 1968 release is a perfect example of late sixties analog entertainment, offering a tactile and engaging experience for game night enthusiasts or those looking to add a piece of strategy history to their library.
This item is vintage, over 55 years old.
