REFERENZA 1 "The Jogo de Gloria is a distinct Portuguese variant of the extended 90-space Game of the Goose. References to the game appear from the late 19th century. For exemple, a humorous study of "madness and manias" in Portugal refers to a poor young man who makes money by betting on the so-called Jogo da Gloria and send the profits to his parents. Chromolithographs survive from this period, either as cheap sheets or pasted to folding boards. A later example is shown in Figure 11.4. The positive spaces, where the player advances by 9, correspond to one of the traditional two series of the Goose game, being on 9, 18, 27 etc. They are marked by the image of a white bird in flight. A special rule applying only to a first throw of nine avoids an immediate win. The first spaces of the other series of the traditional game on 5, 14, 23 etc are marked by images of travel: bridge, electric tram, steam train, steamship, and riding stables; at each of these a fine of one or two stakes is paid. The remaining spaces of this series are hazards: a crab at space 50 (go back according to the points thrown), the well at 59 (wait for another player as substitute), death at 68 (withdraw from the game), Hell at 77 (begin again from space 1), and Purgatory at space 86 (wait for another player to take one's place). The central space, labelled Glory, is decorated with a winged cherub. The circular track is wreathed with laurel and flanked by two imposing women, one bearing a flaming torch the other a drawn sword. In other versions, these figures are sometimes winged angels. All these touches confirm that the game is intended as an allegory of human life with the bird representing the dove of the Holy Spirit, and Heavenly Glory the goal. The versions published by Majora from the 1930s retain most of these features. Although the track length of 90 suggests derivation from the extended Italian Game of the Goose the specifically religious aspects are distinct. The existence of Hell and Purgatory spaces present on the earliest Spanish games (but absent on the extended Italian tracks of the 19th century) may point to a source for these elements".
