The Rhode Map can be puzzling

Posted

Do you know where the best coffee cabinets in the state are made? Do you know where the oldest penny arcade in the nation is?

With 200 questions and multiple-choice answers on cards in addition to two jigsaw puzzles, Rhode Map shows Rhode Island where all the goods are. 

Rhode Map is played by two players or two teams. Answer correctly and you get one piece of the jigsaw puzzle. You will need 23 more correct answers to receive all the pieces, and they form the map of Rhode Island. Each of the 2 puzzles is the state map with the names of the cities and towns, but each is colored and shaped differently. 

This is the sixth Rhode Island game created by Roberta Mudge Humble of Warwick. Roberta says that her two goals are to promote Rhode Island and to restore historic armories. She is president of Westerly Armory Restoration and over the years has helped a number of other armories. “These buildings represent our freedom, those sacrifices made for us,” she said. 

Earlier games, Rhode Test, Rhode Scholar, and Rhode Side have sold out, leaving the newest games, I am Rhode Island and Rhode Map to warm the hearts of Rhode Islanders. There is also a book of games and puzzles, Rhode Island for the Native & Naïve which, Roberta says, is “good arm-chair fun.”

 Roberta’s books and games are available in 24 stores around the state, including Twice-Told Tales in Pawtuxet, Ocean State Apparel, Barrington Books, and the Warwick Beacon office. Other stores are listed at westerlyarmory.com and items are available there online, as well. A portion of sales goes to the historic Westerly Armory.
