The full title is Règles du Grand Jeu de la Génese. Gloire à Dieu etc. The 63-space spiral covers events from the Book of Genesis. In the four corners are scenes depicting the Creation of the World; the Creation of Adam, Eve and the creatures of the Earth; Noah’s Ark; and the escape of Lot and his daughters from the burning city of Sodom. The spiral, in which each space shows a different scene referenced to a text from Genesis, begins at space 1 with the eating of the forbidden fruit, showing the tree with the serpent entwined around its trunk. The final event, on space 62, shows the death of Joseph, as minister to the King of Egypt, while the winning ”celestial” space at 63 shows the Angel of Genesis bearing a scroll to the Glory of God. The favorable goose-rule spaces are traditionally arranged in the usual two sequences and are distinguished by an upper-case letter “G”, standing for Génese. The hazards are not thematic: for example, the death space at 58 shows the chastity of Joseph with Potiphar (though it is marked with a skull and crossbones, not related to the scene), whereas an actual death scene of Cain slaying Abel is at space 5 and is marked with a “G,” being a favorable goose space. This complete lack of thematic correspondence is somewhat unusual in French 63-space Goose games of the early 19th century and is presumably dictated by the constraint of maintaining the order of the scenes to correspond with the Book of Genesis.
