Simple, but infectious.

(Dating note: The box and rules are not dated. However, the place of manufacture is Harborne, England, where Chad Valley shifted production in 1920. Their Royal Charter mark, granted in 1936, is not printed on the box, so this edition of Alfa-Kubes must have been created between these dates. Hence this submission of 'c.1928')

Alfa-Kubes is a word dice game.
