Het Groot Van Dale Spel der Nederlandse Taal (1995)

Overview

(from back of the box, translated from Dutch) "Test your knowledge of our language! A box full of spelling questions and a box full of word knowledge questions. Thousands of difficulties. As player you always choose the level on which you want to play. And...every player can win! Collect three dictionaries and "click" them onto your pawn! Play on safe (green), play with some guts (blue), or are your ready to face a red question? Who challenges whom? Never was "educational" this much fun! So exciting! And of course: the name Van Dale guarantees high quality"

Het groot van Dale spel der Nederlandse taal is a word game based on the major dictionary of the Dutch language. It consists of a board over which the players move their pawns, answering questions pertaining to the Dutch language, in the fields of word knowledge and spelling. Correct answers earn dictionary markers which are put under the pawn. Depending on whether a player has one, two or three dictionaries, the questions become increasingly difficult, making the end game a challenge. The game ends when a player reaches the finish space on the board while having three dictionary markers.

This game is the same as Das grosse Dudenspiel and Oxford: the Great Oxford Game of the English Language, but in Dutch.
