When i was a little kid i loved to play this great game, now i'm a big kid and still like it!
After nowhere man said maybe the inventor was from Porto i got curious and found some interesting facts on google:
-The inventor is from Spain(pt) or France and / or Germany to others.
-It's amazing what some do with this game!
-It's amazing what people do with some parts of this game!
-There is a version with humans!
...
This never ends!
