The Italian Game of Chance
Tombola is the traditional Italian game of chance loved by generations and cherished by families during the holidays. The origin dates as far back as four centuries ago in Naples, when gambling was popular among the citizens but was frowned upon by the church. Thus, a new way to play the lottery at home in secret was invented! And this game (think Bingo with more chances to win, more rounds, and more hilarity!)
How to Play Tombola
The game is played over five rounds. Over the course of a round, the tombolone will draw a number an announce it. If a player has that number, they cover it on their board. Each round will have players attempting to fill a certain number of spaces on their card, then calling out a special (and in some cases ridiculous) word! You'll find the Italian word or phrase and an English translation on each space.
